Your
Most Important
Relationship
Your relationship with yourself is your closest and most
important relationship. What kind of relationship with yourself have you
chosen – a judging, a
coaching, a
fearful, or a loving one? "Ask yourself in
meditation what kind of friendship you want to nurture with your own
self – do you want an inner friend who constantly judges you and denies you
love, or do you want an inner friend who accepts you just as you are?"
advises John Selby.
All-Inclusive Love
Balancing Giving and Receiving
Your life can only be in balance when giving
and receiving are in
balance. Every interpersonal relationship is built on this fact of life.
He who always gives acts against this principle just as much as he who only
takes. This basic truth is valid without exception everywhere where people
deal with people.

Move From HOW Are You To WHO Are You
6 Creative Questions To
Answer
By: Scott Ginsberg
There comes a time in every conversation with someone you’ve just met
when you must cross the chasm between “HOW are you?” and “WHO are you?”
A helpful technique for doing so is by
asking creative, open ended
questions. These questions function as front porches, inasmuch as their
ability to
build rapport, spark creativity and invite people to share
their experiences and preferences. What’s more, they show an interest in
people’s opinions and insights.

Benefits of Friendship
In a Yale University study of 194 heart attack patients,
those who reported emotional support were three times more likely to be
alive six months after their attack than subjects who had no support.
In a study at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburg,
researchers rounded up 276 volunteers, dripped cold viruses into their
noses, and then quarantined them for five days. Subjects who had a wide
range of friends and acquaintances had one-fourth the chance of catching a
cold as those whose social networks were minimal.

Building Relationships – Your
Key Business
Skills
A relationship is two people eliciting responses
from each other. If you want a change in response, then you must change your
own actions.
As a business professional, you should ask yourself: "What
business am I in?". The answer is quite simple: if your business has
anything to do with people - and ALL businesses do - you are in the business
of building relationships. "Some people think that if they sell things, they
are in the business of selling. They aren't. They are in the business of
building relationships – because
that's how you sell things. Those in
management are also in the business of
building relationships, because that's how you get things done."1
