- Don't Use Someone Else's Yardstick
Emotionally mature people can tell the difference between constructive and destructive feedback. Constructive feedback helps us identify blind spots. Destructive feedback comes across as controlling and belittling. Too many people are saying, “You need to do it this way, you shouldn’t do that. Well, that didn’t work well. You definitely should have studied harder.” What we hear is we are not enough; we don’t measure up to their standards. Then we feel bad because it’s difficult to live up to the way others measure. Comparison…that’s another measure, it’s looking at people and thinking, “Man, everyone has better ideas, are making more, getting out there more, selling more, doing more.” It can be easy to feel like everyone else is just…more. Using someone else’s yardstick to measure your self-worth will always leave you short. We all have our own talents, strengths, skills, and abilities and we should never measure or compare ourselves against another. We can only measure ourselves against our own potential and against the person we were the day before. When it comes to your potential, it’s important to recognize the things you enjoy, excel, and have a bent toward. Then tap into those things. Let’s follow the big play book and “pay careful attention to your own work, for then you will get the satisfaction of a job well done, and you won’t need to compare (measure) yourself to anyone else. For we are each responsible for our own conduct.” ~Galatians 6:4-5 NLT Keep your yardstick close. Watch for the blind spots and build a better you. Please share, like or comment on this post.

- Words without Speaking
This past Sunday was another wonderful experience watching the young family that usually sits in front of us at church. I am amazed at what I see happen as this young couple comes to celebrate Sunday with their three children. Their ages are 3,7, and 9. The love in this family is so apparent, and the children's behavior is exemplary. The mom sat with her arm around her daughter. Both leaned in, demonstrating a firm, loving grip. Her son looked over at them, leaned into her, and was received by her other loving arm and gentle caress. Love, comfort, connection, and security were all spoken without words. Her younger son was sitting comfortably in Dad's lap, and when he waved at her with his pinkie finger, she returned it and added a loving smile. Dad glanced at the middle child and, with a wink and a nod to the front, the boy paid quick attention to what was happening. After the children's sermon, they left for their activities and the parents scooted close and embraced. Wow, what a fantastic conversation they had with no words. Have you ever noticed how we pick up information from others without hearing a sound? Our body language radiates a range of emotions, intentions, and attitudes. They include gestures, posture, facial expressions, eye contact, and touch. Tone, including pitch, volume, and rhythm, comes from within the body and can convey emotions and attitudes. A gentle and soothing tone can express care and empathy, while a harsh or condescending tone may indicate anger or criticism. Touch is a powerful nonverbal form of communication in relationships. It can convey affection, comfort, support, and connection. Different types of touch, such as a gentle caress, a firm handshake, or a comforting hug, can communicate various emotions and intentions. However, because individual preferences might vary, it's important to respect personal boundaries and get permission before touching someone. Eye contact is a significant aspect of nonverbal communication, conveying attentiveness, interest, and sincerity. Maintaining appropriate and comfortable eye contact during conversations demonstrates active listening and engagement. On the other hand, prolonged or excessive eye contact could be viewed in some situations as intrusive or uncomfortable. Silence and pauses convey various meanings, such as reflection, discomfort, or tension. Comfortable silence can indicate a sense of closeness. Open and honest communication, both verbal and nonverbal, are crucial for building and maintaining healthy and fulfilling relationships. Awareness of and responsiveness to nonverbal communication can deepen understanding, enhance emotional connection, and improve overall relationship dynamics. Do you ever take into consideration what your body is saying? What are your unconscious body mannerisms saying to others? Watch for the blind spots.

- Goals and Processes
At the end of last year, I talked about setting goals for the upcoming year. Remember, I asked you to write a letter to be read at year-end that reflects the goals and accomplishments you attained this year, 2023. "How will it end?" was the title.The letter was to be written as though the year was complete and you were summarizing your successes. Now is a great time to dig it out and see where you stand. Oops, are you like most who did not get around to it? Well, that's what happens when we set something out into the future and don't feel the pressure initially. [Blind Spot] I think this is a great time to examine the relationship between goals and processes. Goals and processes are two interrelated aspects of achieving success, but they serve different purposes and play different roles in the overall journey. Let's explore each of them: Goals are specific targets or objectives that you set to accomplish within a particular time-frame. They provide direction and a clear sense of purpose. Goals help you define what you want to achieve and act as a roadmap for your actions. They can be short-term or long-term, and they should be specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART). Goals provide a sense of focus and motivation, helping you stay on track and measure your progress. Process refers to the steps, actions, and strategies you undertake to achieve your goals. It is the method or approach you follow to reach your desired outcomes. The process involves the day-to-day activities, tasks, and routines necessary to achieve your goals. It includes planning, organizing, executing, monitoring, and adjusting your actions as needed. While goals provide the destination, the process is the journey that leads you there. In the post mentioned above, there is a super resource for establishing this principle, it’s called the Weekly Display and you can download it by clicking this link Weekly Display. This form provides the daily tracking process to ensure goals are met. Goals are essential methods of guiding our lives to success. They are easy to set, appear impressive, and ensure prosperity, at least initially. If we are not diligent, they can become an albatross around our necks if we allow time to outrun our progress. Processes encompass the actions, strategies, and time-frames to achieve those goals. Both are essential components of success and finding a balance between the two is crucial for sustainable progress and personal fulfillment. How are you doing on your annual goals? Are they still attainable? How important were they when you established them? It is not too late. Watch for the blind spots. Please comment, like, and share, I appreciate your input.

- Playing in Dive Bars
So, the year was 2022, and it was January. My book, Blind Spots in Relationships, What I Don't Know I Don't Know About, Myself, was released. This is a self-published book through Amazon and sales immediately began to rise. I was excited and enthusiastic about getting the word out in order to alleviate the emotional pain, financial burden, and fear that children experience when their family unit is destroyed. I have also seen too many careers jeopardized as a result of poor relationships. More important than selling books, I wanted the message to get out so that individuals might recognize and develop new relationship opportunities—couples, parent-child, business relationships, extended families, and so on. I set out to speak to civic clubs, podcasts, churches, schools, and other places to spread the word. WHAT! Just because you publish a book doesn't mean the world is out there to buy it. This being my first adventure of writing my book, was like setting out on a journey, not knowing where I was going or how I was going to get there. I have had to laugh many times and the things that I have been able to learn over the past 1 1/2 years. Trilogy Christian Publishing released my book early in 2023. Being an International Christian publishing company, this was the booster rocket that would propel this movement over the top. [Blind Spot] WHAT! Again, even though a publishing company is marketing this book, sales still didn't go over the top. I was talking to a friend who has recently retired from an aerospace company and is forming a new business independently. He said it had taken years for his new business to take off, but now it seems to be flourishing. His statement was, "You have to play in a lot of dive bars before hitting the big time." (He is also a musician) This truly resonated with me. Not that we are playing in any dive bars, but the concept was powerful. Kel Majors is doing the graphics and marketing for my book. Her work has been tireless and highly effective as she illustrates these posts and provides research and organization for our future. We have launched this book and these posts on a wing and many prayers with the idea that God will accomplish His purpose as He has told me to get this message to the masses. Our job is to be faithful and continue the process as we are guided. How about you? Have you ventured into the unknown, on a wing, and prayed with the idea that God’s got this? It is indeed an adventure. Live boldly! We only get one time around in this life. What is God inspiring you to do? Are you allowing your limiting beliefs to thwart your progress? [Blind Spot] Are you playing in enough dive bars? Watch for the blind spots. Please comment, like, and share, I appreciate your input. You can get a copy of my book below.

- Mother's Day
Happy belated Mother’s Day to all mothers! It is never too late. I heard this a couple of days ago. I am still determining the validity of this story, but I love it anyway. One day young Thomas Edison came home from school with a sealed note from his teacher. He was instructed only to give it to his mother and do it as soon as he entered the house. He found his mother and did as he was requested. His mother opened the envelope and began reading. Her eyes started to fill with tears as she read the letter. Young Thomas hesitantly asked what it said. His mother wiped her eyes, looked proudly at her son, and said, "It says, 'Your son is a genius, and this school is too small for him and doesn't have enough good teachers to train him properly. Please teach him yourself.'" Edison, as you know, became one of the greatest inventors in history. Many years later, after his mother had passed, he was going through an old closet in his family home, and in it, he found the old envelope that contained the letter that he had given to his mother so many years ago. He opened the envelope and pulled out the letter. The note said, “Your son is mentally ill, and we cannot let him attend our school anymore. He is expelled.” Edison became emotional while reading it, and later that evening, he wrote in his diary; Thomas Edison was a mentally ill child whose mother turned him into a genius. That is the magical power of a mother's love. A mother's belief can turn what could have been a delinquent into a genius, a creator, a contributor, a person who ends up having a profound impact on the life of billions of people. All of this occurred by the power of love and belief. Mothers have a magical ability to instill confidence in us. Though we can believe we are ordinary, mothers are the ones who show us how extraordinary we actually are. The longer I live, the more I appreciate mothers. They work tirelessly and without us having a clue, sacrifice and give up things for themselves so we, as their children, don't go without. I love my mom and miss her dearly. I hope your moms were recognized for all they did for you without you even knowing it. It is never too late. Watch for the blind spots. Please comment, like, and share, I appreciate your input.

- Grace
Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, and forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you. Ephesians 4:32 God’s grace is free and abundant. We pay no price, nor can we earn it. It is freely given. Grace in relationships refers to extending kindness, forgiveness, and understanding to others, even when they may not deserve it. It involves approaching interactions with empathy and compassion and striving to maintain a positive and respectful demeanor, even in the face of conflict or disagreement. My friends Ralph and Robin are as human as they come. They practice great things and suffer from their own mistakes, as we all do. Both have been hurt by the other’s mistakes, choices, and failures. The beauty of their relationship is they are still extremely gracious to each other. Just as God’s grace is unearned, Ralph and Robin apply this in their relationship. It is impressive when one shows the other grace, how the other wants to step up and show their love and appreciation in return. It has been my experience that the more couples lean on God, the more solid and healthy their relationship becomes. When practicing grace in relationships, we strive to avoid judgment and criticism and instead aim to listen and understand the perspectives of others. We are willing to acknowledge our own faults and shortcomings and work to make amends when necessary. Grace in relationships can profoundly impact the quality of our connections with others. It can help foster trust, deepen emotional intimacy, and create a sense of mutual respect and admiration. It can also facilitate healthy conflict resolution and promote forgiveness and healing in times of strife. Ultimately, practicing grace in relationships requires a willingness to prioritize the well-being of others and to approach interactions with kindness, compassion, and understanding. By doing so, we cultivate deeper, more meaningful connections with those around us and contribute to a more harmonious and peaceful relationship. How are you showing grace? I know it is something I can continue to work on. How about you? Watch for the blind spots. Please comment, like, and share, I appreciate your input. Get a copy of my book below.

- Relational Pain
My friends Ralph and Robin have been hurt and in pain for the last 2 to 4 years. They have very young and challenging children, and most of their focus and attention at home involves raising them. Young children have many needs and wants. Appeasing them can be intrusive to a marriage. The emphasis shifts to the children, and the pursuit of their marital connection takes a back seat after some time. It is a slow and deadly erosion, and because of this, their relationship grows cold. Together they sought an outsider's view of their circumstances. They knew that letting go of relational pain would be challenging but essential in moving forward and finding healing. They looked for sage advice and support. Having someone to listen, initiate new strategies, and provide comfort and encouragement was difficult but helpful to hear. They began to focus on the following: They started to express and feel the emotions connected to the suffering, such as differing parenting methods, feeling unpursued, despair, or disappointment, in a healthy way rather than trying to hide or reject their feelings. This was done by talking about themselves and not the other. "I'm frustrated; I'm confused; I'm hurt; I do not feel pursued." Acknowledging rather than holding or stuffing pain can provide necessary relief. Initiating self-care by attending to themselves physically, emotionally, and spiritually. This includes getting enough sleep, eating nutritious food, exercising, practicing prayer, mindfulness, and meditation. Practicing forgiveness. This is not about condoning the other person's behavior but rather about releasing themselves from the anger and resentment they were holding. This involves writing a letter to the person or simply letting go of the negative emotions associated with the relationship. Focusing on the present and refusing to dwell on the past or worry about the future. Instead, focus on the present moment and the things they can control. Remember, letting go of relational pain is a process that will take time. Be patient with yourself and continue to take steps toward healing and growth. Are you now, or have you in the past experienced this Ralph and Robin story? There is still time to go back and implement the items listed above. Watch for the blind spots.

- Empathy
Empathy is a critical component of healthy and fulfilling relationships. It involves the ability to understand and share another person's feelings, which can help build trust, intimacy, and emotional connection. It is like being in their skin, thoroughly allowing and appreciating their experiences. We are so different and sometimes feel that everyone sees and processes experiences just as we do. [Blind Spot] Being in another's shoes is not enough. Empathy is not sympathy. Sympathy is the formal expression of pity or sorrow for someone else's misfortune. In relationships, empathy can help partners feel seen, heard, and understood. When someone is going through a difficult time, expressing empathy can provide comfort and support, strengthening the bond between partners. Similarly, when someone is happy or excited, sharing their joy through empathetic listening and conversation can help them feel valued and appreciated. "You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view, until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it." ~ Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird Empathy requires effort and attention. It involves actively listening and tuning in to body language and nonverbal cues. It bears repeating; empathy is putting oneself in another person's skin to understand their perspective. Sometimes, it can be difficult to empathize with a partner's emotions, especially if they are feeling upset or angry. In these situations, it's essential to remain calm, patient, and nonjudgmental to create a safe and supportive space for them to share their feelings. Using gently curious questions and not fixing them is also helpful. Overall, empathy is a vital component of healthy relationships. By cultivating empathy, partners create a more profound sense of emotional intimacy and connection, which help them navigate the challenges and joys of life together. Want to improve your relational connection? On an empathy scale of 1 to 10, give yourself a rating. Regardless of what rating you gave, what can you do to move the rating up just half a point? Healthy relationships take work. Are you coasting? Watch for the blind spots. Feel free to comment, like, and share these posts. You can get a your book below.

- What's not being said?
Stress in relationships is a common phenomenon that can arise for various reasons. It can be caused by external factors such as financial issues, job-related stress, health problems, parenting disagreements, and many more. Stress can also be induced by internal factors such as communication breakdowns, misunderstandings, and differences in expectations or values. Robin and Ralph, my favorite couple, have been struggling with financial stress. Like many couples, this can get out of control quickly. They are both aware of it, but neither is talking about it. Whenever other issues arise, like problems with the children or work, both are very short-fused and quickly get into an argument. The source of the argument is their unresolved financial issue, but disagreements appear, masking the real problem. Because they cannot see the real source, stress permeates their thinking and behavior. [Blind Spot] This financial stress is harming them. As witnessed in their current struggles, it can lead to feelings of anxiety, frustration, and resentment resulting in a relationship breakdown if left unaddressed. They fear bringing it up will cause worse problems, so the finances go unaddressed. [Blind Spot] This is a classic situation where it's not what we say, it is what we don't say that causes relationship problems. It is a perfect time to tell each other what they think about this haunting issue. For some reason, this conversation is avoided. I'll let you guys apply their stories to your own lives. When issues go unresolved, we set our relationships up for degradation, if not failure. Talking is the key to reducing stress, and facing problems as a team rather than enemies can facilitate resolution. When managing stress in relationships, it is essential to identify the root cause and communicate openly and honestly with your partner. Ultimately, managing stress in relationships requires effort and commitment from both partners, as well as a willingness to communicate to find solutions and overcome challenges. How about you? Are there masked situations in your relationships that are causing stress and resentment? What is not being said that needs to be said? Watch for the blind spots.

- Resentments
[Anger or bitterness at having been treated unfairly.] Resentments in relationships are the accumulation of negative feelings you have toward your spouse, boss, employee, teammate, stepchild, stepparent, or others that stem from unresolved acts, deeds, conversations, or unmet needs. Without a resolution, these resentments accumulate and silently deteriorate the relationship, creating distance over time. Vulnerability ceases to exist due to trust being broken. I call resentments rust in relationships. Just as a fine piece of steel can be damaged if neglected and allowed to rust, so are resentments in relationships. As they arise, they begin to corrode closeness and understanding. It is a terrible blind spot to uncover because it feels so justified when someone is causing you emotional or physical pain. Like any adjective that describes a person, resentment is on a continuum from mild to chronic. A sad person can be a little sad or debilitated. An angry person can be slightly angry or enraged. Resentments can be large or small. Robin resents Ralph because he leaves his dishes in the sink or he will not stop texting the woman at work. The real problem happens when both parties in a relationship collect resentment toward the other. When one causes the other pain, it is easy to feel justified in becoming bitter and add to the resentment bag that we so smugly carry. Usually, resentments happen when someone's needs are conveyed, and they go unattended. After a few failures to get their point across, the attempt to get a resolution gets dropped from the conversation, but it gets added to the resentment bag. Resentments are created and resolved through communication. Failure to communicate resentments effectively is their source, and healthy conversation can reduce and even eliminate them. Here is an example of unhealthy communication. On the way home from a party, Robin and Ralph are silent. Both are telling themselves a story like this: Robin: "He did not speak to me tonight." Ralph: "I don't know what is happening with her, but I must steer clear." Here is an example of healthy communication. On the way home from a party, Robin and Ralph are silent. Robin begins to share "the story I'm telling myself" with Ralph: Robin: "I am hurt by your ignoring me tonight. I want something very different because it speaks to me that I no longer matter, and Ralph, that is not acceptable. I love you and care too much to be treated that way. I remember and long for how you used to treat me." Ralph: "Thanks for sharing that. I thought you were mad at me and I was giving you space. If I could do it again, I would have asked what you needed from me." When shared, "the story I'm telling myself" can be a powerful tool for preventing and resolving conflicts. When I share "the story I'm telling myself," it clears the air. Oh, what a difference it makes to clear the air, stop the assumptions, and operate from the facts. It is easy and even cultural to collect resentments, don't let rust take a foothold and begin corroding your relationships. Start with what stories you are telling yourself.

- Do Things Right
Robin and Ralph have been married for 15 years and notice they have gotten comfortable majoring on each other's minuses. It is easy to let the compliments and pursuits fall by the wayside as time together accumulates. It is excellent that they are looking at this now. Is it customary for us to catch people doing things right and well, either at home or away? When someone does something extraordinary, it's easy to compliment, do, or say something positive. We expect good behavior and actions from people. But when they are continually doing things right and well, it can become mundane and easy to miss, making the focus now on what they are doing wrong. Think about young children growing up. How much negativity do they hear or experience? Of course, children must be corrected and reminded of their well-being and safety. We work with them on correcting what is wrong and unhealthy. But I often wonder if I balance catching the wrong as well as catching them doing things right and well. We all need wins under our belt. I can especially be hard on myself and forget, "Do I catch myself doing things right, or am I my own worst critic? Do I celebrate my wins enough?" [Blind Spot] Spending so much time on the road, "Do I compliment drivers if I'm on the highway and they drive at the speed limit? Do I compliment them if I'm on the freeway and the slow traffic is in the right-hand lane? Do I compliment those who signal to change lanes and warn me of their intentions?" [Blind Spot] It goes without saying if I feel threatened on the roadway, I will do whatever it takes to escape harm. Those kinds of drivers are prevalent. I have noticed when I'm in a hurry or anxious about something, I am the most critical of others; this could be about their driving or mannerisms at home or in the office. [Blind Spot] When I am anxious, I don't see others do much of anything right, well, or worth complimenting. But it's interesting how I change and become much kinder and even more tolerant when things are going well, and I feel good about myself. [Blind Spot] How about you? Are you nervous Nelly, or anxious Andy? Are you looking for opportunities to catch people doing things right and well and compliment them? This is certainly something I can do more of; we all need to be caught doing things right and well. Watch for the blind spots. Please comment, like, and share, I appreciate your input.
