259-How To Achieve The Happiness Magic In Relationships
How do you find the right partner? What are the types of relationships that make you feel good? Well, would you believe, there is a happiness answer and we spill the beans today.
Transcript:
Welcome to Everyday Happiness where we create lasting happiness, in 2 minutes a day, through my signature method of Intentional Margins® (creating harmony between your to-dos and your priorities), happiness science, and musings about life.
I'm your host Katie Jefcoat and The Happiness Research Institute talks about the three dimensions to our identity, our self-understanding as it applies to relationships. This, what I am about to articulate to you, that I learned from The Happiness Research really turned on the lightbulb for me.
The three dimensions to our identity are:
- Who we feel we are
The magic is when we have relationships where we feel we are genuine and authentic to who we are and people see us for who we are.
And those same people see us for who we are and also want to help us become who we want to be.
When we feel we are who we want to be, and people see us that way, that's when we achieve happiness.
It’s brilliant and simple and complex all at the same time. Can you think of a relationship where that person is all-in, your biggest fan and also sees your potential and sees you for who you are? That probably makes you feel good right? Feel secure, confident, satisfied and even happy.
On the flip, we all have relationships that don’t make us feel amazing and I am guessing that you can reflect and see which element is missing.
Today, I invite you to think about your relationships, which ones bring you happiness and how you can have more of that.
Until next time, keep spreading that kindness.
This episode was inspired by The Happiness Research Institute in Copenhagen, Denmark and their happiness course, The Happy Course.
