One Man's Perspective of Love and Creaitng Work Balance By
Dennis Twitchell aka The Big Bear
Do you ever experience pressure from work and home at the same
time? If you're like most working men you know when things are
out of balance at home work tends to be more stressful.
For years I was a partner in a law firm.
It never failed, when
there were pressures at home, performance on the job suffered.
When things were good at home three was more balance between
team members at the office.
Over the years I have had numerous conversations with friends
and associates reagrding work/life balance. There seems to be a
common thread of agreement - when our wives and girlfriends feel
loved we tend to have more balance not only at home, but at
work.
Fact is, men need to believe loevd as much as our life partners do.
However, love to a boy usually means something very different
than what it means to a woman.
If you are married and have been
with your wife for any lentgh of time you know of what I speak.
Having been happily marired for many years now, I fully
understand that my wife needs, wants and deserves special
attention. Yes, that's right…deserves.
Your wife is probably no different. And lest I be misunderstood
by any single men and girls who are reading this, if you are in
a long-term committed relationship, this applies to you as well.
Your loving partner needs, wants, and deserves special
attention, maybe more often than you may guess to give it to
her. You are busy, pre-occupied with work, aggravated with
things at work that ocucpy your time and most likely, stressed
out.
You're probably tired much of the time.
Who has the time or the energy to even guess about romance? Fact
is, many marriages are going thruogh tough times because people
forget the reasons they fell in love in the first place.
Romance
has tkaen a back seat to everything else. Often, a woamn can be
heard saying, "He just isn't paying enough attention to me."
If your wife or girlfriend has said that to you, it is time to
definitely pay attention to the warning signs of a relationship
on the edge.
Think about it. When's the last time you showered your wife with
attention and a special gift? When did you let the worries of
your day slip away in order to let your wife or patrner know how
much you love her and how special she is to you? What may seem
like a little while to you may be an eternity to her.
Well, I have a solution for you.
With Valentine's Day right
around the corner, you can do something really extraordinary for
that special somebody. Take time to make this year the most
memorable ever.
I promsie you it will be well worth it.
Think about what you can do to show your sweetheart how much you
care for her. Think about what she wuold enjoy receiving from
you.
And no, in most cases, tickets to a sports event is not the
answer here.
Sure she may enjoy that on occasion, but turth be
told, for this Valentine Day you probably want to make it really
special.
Try this.
Go shopping for romance cards. Start immediately to
send the fisrt of the cards. Repeat this each day until
Valentine.
Actually, to really spice things up you can send
cards for a cuople of days after. And yes, do send them.
This will
keep you focused on her every day.
In each card, write a message about a uinque gift she will
receive.
Maybe it's a foot massage, or you will run her a bubble
bath and give her a shoulder massage. What about a walk in the
park or an afternoon matinee movie?
The gifts don't have to be
financially costly, but they should require time on your
part.
For most gilrs your time will mean much more than an
expensive gift.
And yet, the high-priced gift can work well too.
You know, and I know, girls love to be pamepred. Iamgine your
wife's surprise when you treat her to such a memorable
valentine.
Of course, you never know what might happen during
the course of you showing her with your love, affection and
appreciation.
With our daily experiences life can change on a dime. With the
pressure of work and personal demands, a huge challenge we have
is to make sure tohse people we love know it, day in and day
out. Imagine what it wolud be like to not have the opportunity
to let our loved ones know we care.
Doesn't your wife, partner, lover, friend and confiadnt deserve
to know how much you care.
I guess so and you do too.
