47. Why taking a break from dating doesn't help


Listen Later

Are you taking a break from dating right now?

I used to get discouraged with dating and take lots of breaks.

I just couldn’t handle the continual disappointment and revolving door of men in my life.

It was all so exhausting. 

But after my break was over, I’d go back to dating and all the same things would happen again.

Nothing had changed but the date on the calendar

This happens because the passage of time alone does not solve anything.

Think about it, if you take a break from remodeling your house, you might enjoy a reprieve from the chaos, but your house just sits there.

It doesn’t magically turn itself into a brand new space.

Neither will your dating life.

You don’t learn anything new about yourself or your relationship patterns by spending time with yourself and your friends.

You learn those things by actually dating, putting yourself out there and interacting with people.

And by evaluating your progress and your decision making.

When you assume responsibility for creating the life you want to have and commit to doing the work involved, you’re much more likely to succeed than if you just hope that the passage of time will change your life.

So if you need a break, take one!

But set goals and limits for yourself for how you will use this time.

And then get back in the game if you want to win.

I have a great free resource to help you create your very own custom man plan so that you can find a quality man ASAP.
