Pretend that you haven’t seen your spouse in years – not as if you just saw him or her when you left for work 8 hours ago.
Take ten seconds before you greet your family – before you open the door and walk into the room.
When you try these two things – the response will be amazing and addictive.
When you haven’t seen a person for a long time – maybe even years – recall how you felt and how they responded to you.
If they are hurting, be compassionate.
If they want to talk with you, listen with 100% attention.
If they feel down, help lift them up.
When you try this, you may be well intended but the other person may be distracted by screens or multitasking so be patient and flexible.
Nothing changes things more than a person’s ability to appreciate the ones close to them as if they hadn’t seen them for a long time. In this way, you will enjoy loved ones without regrets and feel powerful in a good way.
