10 Stupid things...

Friends - whether it is a parents-child relationship or employer-employee or husband-wife or any business or personal relationships - we grow and achieve ONLY through a relationship in life - BUT the biggest mistakes we do in life are also relationship mistakes.

Below is a list of major relationship mistakes we all have made / make - at some point of time...

1. Stupid Secrets

Withholding important information for fear of rejection

2. Stupid Egotism 

Asking not what you can do for the relationship but only what the relationship can do for you

3. Stupid Pettiness
Making a big deal out of the small stuff

4. Stupid Power
Always trying to be in control

5. Stupid Priorities
Consuming all your time and energies with work, hobbies, errands, and chores instead of focusing on your relationship

6. Stupid Happiness
Seeking stimulation and assurance from all the wrong places to satisfy the immature need to feel good

7. Stupid Excuses
Not being accountable for bad behavior

8. Stupid Liaisons
Not letting go of negative attachments to friends and relatives who are damaging to your relationship

9. Stupid Mismatch
Not knowing when to leave and cut your losses

10. Stupid Breakups
Disconnection for all the wrong reasons

Friends - Most of the STRESS in life is due to...
what you do with other people / yourself OR what they do with you.

Decide - whether the relationship is worth it or not - and then - value it genuinely - if you will not value - someone else will...
