Jack Canfield - Motivation that is not in your face!


Jack Canfield is in my opinion the best motivator on the planet. His work in The Secret interested me enough to check out several of his books. What I enjoy about Jack is his laid back style, he is not in your face telling you what to do. His works are ideas and suggestions that motivate you to put the effort into your future. Many of the other motivators make me feel like they are my Drill Sargent in boot camp. Jack, however maps things out and has specific plan for you to follow on your leisure or for when you want to reach your goals. On the romance side Jack is obviously dedicated to his wife and family and that makes a big deal to me. Jack teaches you how to have the desire to improve without forgetting about the little things that make the energy so great. Sit down together and listen to Jack Canfield speak or watch the movie The Secret together and pay close attention to his parts in the movie. As a couple you will feel the energy that he is giving off and it will want to make your excel as a couple as well.

What would you do for your Love!


Most of us go out of our way to help our partners. I hear stories of people running out in the pouring rain to get ice cream for their pregnant partners. Or parents that will sit up with their sick children all night and not get a minute of sleep. These are the type of actions that show how much you care about that other person. When you evaluate your relationship however you have to look at if you think your partner would do the same for you. Will they stay up late to massage your back if you hurt it at work? Would they run across town to help you out in the middle of the night? Would they take care of the kids so you could get some rest? If you answer no to these questions then you really need to look at your relationship, does it work with one partner putting all the effort into the relationship? Is there room for selfishness in a relationship? Well if you are strong you can overcome many challenges. No one likes for their good deeds to go unnoticed but for many people out their it is like that. Now you have to compare apples to oranges here. On partner might not be able to go without sleep and perform their job the next day, however they can repay the other partner in other ways. You can't look for a specific return on your investment so don't give a relaxing massage and expect your partner to jump up and give you one right after they are done. Look carefully at your relationship and the things your partner might be doing that you are over looking, it is easy to do. Relationships are like a bicycle built for two. You both have to pedal to get where you need to be, and if one person is doing all the pedaling then they will grow tired faster then the one not pedaling.
