HAHAHA Okay so I cheated on time a little, and told you guys I'd be back by yesterday. My apologies!
I'm starting on something different today. Okay not that different but still different.
Definition of happiness in a relationship. It means differently to a lot of people. Some describe faithfulness and loyalty as a source of happiness, some derive it from those sweet little moments, others just take it as laughters with their spouse. Alright before I actually dwell into this topic I need some soothing music, sorry for the anti-climax though.
Practically, humans do things through this principle of law called Reciprocity. When one does a favour for the other, the other one will want to do a favour back as well, because they often subconsciously feel that they do not want to 'owe' that person.
Therefore, reciprocity have always been the most basic foundation for mankind, be it in reproducing or any other activities. Yet love is not only fueled by reciprocity, for there exists something called feelings.
For instance, X treats Y faithfully and loyally, Y will be 'obliged' to do the same to X as well. However, basic rules do not often work this way, and other factors such as the degree of love and happiness comes into play.
Love, a major part of it, is based on self-driven motivation. My explanation for this term of self-driven motivation? The unseen form of feeling that your mind urges you to do things, yet it is actually also subconsciously motivated by your other half. Insistence on striving for togetherness and earning that one smile from one's spouse comes into place here, and reciprocation does its magic.
For those who think it's not worth it to be so nice and love so much, slowly losing your insistence on making your other partner happy despite how tough things are and allowing your heart's walls and excuses to get into the way, don't. Somebody has to start first, so be that person to make your other half subconsciously 'owe' you something, and then it'll become a cycle. Your very first step will be the first leap towards a successful relationship. For something to relieve you from this Great Wall of Text, check out this video, it's on reciprocity, but for business.
Back to the topic. Insist on pushing yourself to making your partner happy under any circumstances without being told, your spouse will slowly feel the determination and insistence towards the relationship and proceed to do the same as well.
Counter excuses with your love and go all the way to make them happy, like remembering small things, be it buying presents,buying presents or doing things that he/she likes without being told, or simply take time, have a quiet walk in the park with them, and find out more about each other's preferences and viewpoints on various topics like politics, life and relationship.
Reciprocation, Exclusivity and Self-Driven Motivation, personally, are the 3 success factors to a happy relationship. Take time and try it.
So that's for the post on maintaining your love life, now I'll tell you guys how you can start maintaining your figure. That's right, the workout session. For today I'm not going to touch on any fabulous set of strength training or cardiovascular exercise, but a simple tip.
Stretch, before you sleep. Lengthen those tendons and muscles, you'll not only obtain better sleep, but less aching muscles the next day. I'm sure I don't have to further touch on the importance of good sleep, between the difference of a light sleep and a deep sleep, but I'm sure to many boys out there who're training for a better figure tomorrow, less muscles aching the next day means faster recovery of muscles, and in turn allows you to get your workout cycle back at a faster rate. Magical isn't it? So stretch before you workout, as well as before you sleep. You'll be amazed at what it can do.
That's all for today, I believe it's been a long post. And to end it, my confession!
#4-I'm a prince in my own world. So I despise those who think they should be treated better than others and deserve special treatment, be it just because they're girls or whatsoever.
Back with a swifter agility, stronger body, more ferocious bite, soul-stealing howls and spine-chilling stares. I'm more than what you can take.
