Don't take me for granted ...

Dear Friends

I read this wonderful article on MSN today, in which some points I'd like to share with you all. 

Relationship expert and author Pat Allen speaks about how in relationships we can either Accept, Reject, or Tolerate (which she does not suggest).



Reclaim Your Power. When we try to change someone else, it may seem like we are in control, but we are most definitely are not. Rather, we are giving away our energy, power and sense or self by focusing it so intensely on someone else. 

To take back our energy, we must focus on the things that make us better and the things that matter to us. 

For example, if working out or eating well makes you feel well physically and mentally, instead of berating your man for eating fast food, focus on boosting your own workout routine or by implementing more fruits and veggies into your own diet. 

It’s all about leading by example.
