TAKE HOME POINTS FROM Dr. Milene Argo

1. Sometimes we fall in love with someone we would never expect. If we are constantly looking for a certain type of person, we may miss the love of our life directly in front of our eyes AND maybe they are ALREADY married to us! 
2. Asking ourselves,  “Why would she/he say this to me?” Is NOT a helpful question. Instead, next time our spouse, mother-in-law, or friend says words to us, let’s ask ourselves instead, “What do I want to make that mean?” 
3. Making assumptions about what people are thinking is dangerous. AND then making assumptions about how other people are feeling is also dangerous! AND THEN making assumptions that other people's thoughts and feelings mean something about us is the MOST dangerous of all!!!! So next time we catch ourselves in this funny mind drama, let’s ask what we would rather spend our time and energy focusing on….someone else’s thoughts and feelings over which we have no control, or our own?

WALK AWAY ASKING YOURSELF

• How do I tell my love story? Is it a fairy tale or a horror story?
• Do I allow myself to love me every day?
• Do I give myself credit for how far I’ve come?
• What are my main sources of motivation?
• Am I choosing the discomfort of growth or the discomfort of being stuck?
