Regardless of where you are in your relationship, it’s crucial to find ways to start giving your spouse the best version of yourself again. If you want to nurture lifelong love and a happier marriage, here are some tips that will help you give your spouse the best version of you.

3. Create moments of tenderness You can certainly make more time for intimacy to create more tenderness in your marriage. However, little everyday gestures can do so much to help your spouse feel loved. Hold hands, look into each other’s eyes, or leave love notes for one another. Remember what makes your spouse light up and add more of that to your marriage today.

4. Listen to your spouse’s heart Has your spouse been seeking your attention or affection? Have you been pausing for long enough to meet their needs? Listen to their heart when they come to you with concerns. 5. Find your “off” switch If you’re someone who prefers to stay busy, moving from one pursuit or task to another, it can be difficult to slow down. Finding your “off” switch is essential for a healthy marriage. It doesn’t mean you have to give up activities or dreams you’ve been pursuing. But it does mean that your spouse deserves to spend a little downtime with you.

1. Share good news with your spouse first Whenever possible, if you have good news to share, make sure your spouse is the first person to hear it from you. Having close relationships with your family and friends is important, but your spouse should be your top priority. That means before you burn all your excitement with coworkers, friends, or family, take that news to your spouse first.

LOVE By Drs. Les and Leslie Parrot

2. Clear away distractions Clearing away distractions doesn’t just mean turning off the TV or putting your phone down to have a conversation. It might mean making sure you’ve completed your daily tasks or obligations so that you can give your spouse your full attention. If you’re a task-oriented person, rather than a more people-oriented person, then clearing away these distractions will help you give your spouse your best.

“I was born and raised in inner city Chicago, the sixth of eighteen children with fifteen brothers. Being the oldest daughter, I was always a caregiver which I believe influenced me to pursue work in the healthcare industry. Today, I have three daughters and five grandchildren. Years ago, I volunteered for hospice and knew immediately that helping seniors was my calling. I was soon employed by hospice but I felt something was missing. I realized it was the limited time I was able to spend with my clients. Having my own business allows me to provide the intimate hands on service needed in our community. I am committed to our seniors throughout their lives and I thank the community for the opportunity to serve.”

3 Stop looking for a secret trick. There is no miraculous shortcut to the better version of yourself.

6 Help other people become the best version of themselves. Pay it forward. Doing so keeps you motivated on your own path, and you’ll find that the lasting connections you build from helping others will greatly benefit you moving forward.

1 Just show up. Say you want to run a marathon, but have no prior experience. The first step is lacing up your shoes and hitting the pavement. Even if you only make it half a mile on your first training run, you’ll be about 2% closer to your ultimate goal than if you didn’t put in any work.

4 Accept help from other people. Don’t let your pride get in the way. Most successful people needed help along the way, too.

Life is made up of a series of choices that determine whether you grow as an individual or stay stagnant. Sometimes, those choices are easy, but other times they require courage. If you’re looking for ways to grow as a person, check out some of these ideas.

5 Stop pretending to know things you don’t know. You’ll never learn anything if you pretend to already know everything.

2 Start from the beginning. You don’t just happen to stumble upon the best version of yourself. You need to start from the beginning and take a high number of small steps in order to become what you envision.

It’s never too late to become the person you want to be! Make time each day to invest in becoming the best version of yourself. Following are some great ideas from Tony Robbins on cultivating your personal growth.

You know who you are – but do you know who you could be? Most of us are held back by limiting beliefs: untrue thoughts we have about our intrinsic nature. By learning to recognize and let go of whatever limiting beliefs are keeping you from becoming the best version of yourself, you’re able to push forward and find the person you really are.

Let Go of Limiting Beliefs

Toss Out Expectations

Our beliefs create our world – but unfortunately, sometimes our beliefs are not our own. Like most, you’ve built at least part of your identity on others’ expectations. The process of internalizing others’ values is unconscious, and bringing it to consciousness is the essence of learning how to be the best version of yourself. Your vision for YOU who you want to be must be yours – no one else’s. Shed Your Old Identity When you determine to find your ideal self, you’re essentially raising the bar – for yourself and the people you know. Your “old self” will resist this due to feelings of insecurity and fear of the unknown. Resist the urge to cling to the familiar – the identity that’s been holding you back – and embrace a cando attitude. Have Compassion for Yourself Being the best version of yourself is about you – not other people. Stop comparing yourself to others and recognize that everyone is on a different path. If you’re not where you’d like to be, have compassion for yourself. Stay Positive As you learn how to be the best version of yourself, you’re sure to hit roadblocks and obstacles. Instead of passion,“positive”discouraged,gettingcultivateemotionslikecuriosityand flexibility. Look at obstacles as opportunities instead of defeats. Give Back Contribution is an essential element of what makes us feel fulfilled. When we give back to others, we feel a greater sense of gratitude and abundance in our own lives. Volunteering is one way in which you can be the best version of you, no matter who you are.
