Hans and Olivia are an example of a couple with some experience in goal setting in their work lives, who sought to apply these skills to becoming Relighting Romance Partners. Like Harry and Sue, they initially applied their goal setting to daily details, especially sharing household chores and coordinating many extended family activities.
Married a second time, for six years, Olivia was a nurse who preferred to spend her free time spinning wool and making the weavings she took to craft fairs and sold at local gift stores. Hans would tell you he was "a techie nerd" who had worked for the same large corporation for many years. Nothing made him more content than having spare time to play computer games. Olivia would weave in the same room. But the housekeeping and the finances went neglected!
As they focused their new partnering skill on rectifying their most problematic areas, Hans and Olivia quickly became ready to dream their bigger goals. Already in their mid-forties, they decided to simplify their cleaning and financial routines until those were under control. Then they joined a Relighting Romance couple's workshop in which they shared their larger dream. They wanted to move to the country and purchase a small hobby farm where Olivia could raise the sheep for her wool and grow the herbs and flowers she enjoyed. Fastest Tips To Get Back Together
Olivia offered,
We had looked at property earlier in our marriage, when this dream was alive and fresh. Over the years, nothing seemed within our price range or close enough to family, and our dream faded. But partnering opened up creativity we had forgotten about.
Hans and Olivia developed a solid Relighting Romance Partnership. They started by working on their daily details. Once their "house was in order," their creative juices flowed right into planning the life they had once dreamed of - before the dream was buried. This can happen for you, too. I have seen couples make monumental creative leaps in their lives, doing things they at first thought almost impossible. Olivia and Hans are one couple with a creative story to tell. Said Hans,
I was totally unconvinced that we would ever move from the city, just because I work for a big technical company and couldn't imagine what I would do living on a farm. But as we talked and listened and explored and experimented with ideas and plans, and looked at property and talked to other people, it all started to seem more possible - all except my work!
Olivia recalled,
I remember all of our friends had to almost force you to talk to your boss about telecommuting. And he agreed almost immediately! You were so surprised! Fastest Tips To Get Back Together
Replied Hans,
It's true. My boss said yes on the condition I'd come in to the office two days a week - and again, that seemed like an obstacle to me, But working as a team and exploring options kept us open to possibilities, and wouldn't you know, this farm came available three months later and we moved shortly after that.
Olivia said,
I love living in the country. We are close to Han's parents, who are getting older, and he stays in the city one night a week and works from home the remaining time. lt's as close to our ultimate dream as anyone can get!
Through their mutual efforts - learning to partner well, then applying their skills to daily details that bogged them down - Hans and Olivia unleashed their creative energy and resurfaced a dream from their early years. Hans and Olivia now share the life of their dreams, living in the country, creating art, and telecommuting. You can envision your goals and achieve your dreams as well.
