Brian Johnson shares his Top 11 Big Ideas from his upcoming class titled, Relationships 101: How to Optimize the Love in Your Life. Here they are:
0) Be healthy: exercise, nutrition, rest, meditation
1) Know your partner's #1 non-negotiable, self-care practice. And, support them in doing it.
2) Standing in Love – choose love again and again (after the honeymoon).
3) Active Love – when in argument, get out of head and into heart, then beam your partner love.
4) Needs work – focus on what you can do differently, not your partner
5) Three fingers – eat your projections
6) Don't take anything personally
7) Appreciation – need a 5 to 1 ratio of positive to negative interactions
8) Phone – turn it OFF. Give your partner the gift of presence.
9) Love letters – write about your ideal partner and who you need to be to be in a relationship with this person
10) Acid test – don't talk about your relationship issues with others. Don't criticize, complain, or gossip about your partner. Instead, have a 5-minute “Sweaty Palm” conversation.
11) Practice. Practice. Practice.
