Take the 30 day kindness challenge

For 30 days . . . KINDNESS

Each day

1. Nothing negative TO your partner or ABOUT them to someone else
2. Find one positive thing to praise or affirm TO your partner and ABOUT them to someone else
3. A small act of kindness or generosity for your partner

Shaunti Feldhahn's research shows that 89% of relationships improved - even if one-sided.

​7 common negatives to nix

1. "This will be hard" - Instead of saying, "This is hard," think and say, "I need to think before I speak, and I can do it."
2. Exasperation, Irritation, and Pointing Out Mistakes - If you don't make a point of irritably stating what someone missed, it won't bother you as much.
3. Sarcasm - Reducing it allows space for positives like empathy, gratitude, and trust to grow.
4. Grumble, Grumble - Eliminating this one, we gain more enjoyment of what we have as discontentment and dissatisfaction drop dramatically.
5. You Hurt Me, I Hurt You - Confronting negativity arising from anger and hurt brings greater peace and more purpose.
6. Suspicion - Although there are appropriate times to question or mistrust, most often it's better for relationships when we don't think the worst possible scenario.
7. Catastrophizing -More enjoyment of life and a lighter heart result when we avoid foolish arguments or talk about potential catastrophes.
