Listen to Michael Sherman of Courageous Loving tell the story of Ben and Marta – a real-life couple whose true story was the inspiration of this blog post.
You know when you go to the movies and watch the previews — within something like 10 seconds you can tell whether or not that flick will be a stud or a dud? RELATIONSHIPS are like that. You can tell everything you want to know about the destiny of a relationship right from the very first days of its infancy. And this counts for professional relationships, too.
**Met an awesome guy, but I can’t stand his house? –Well, you’re always going to want to have dinner at your place.
**This girl is amazing, but she smokes? -Sorry, her mouth is going to taste like a Merit until she quits.
Think about a relationship you’re in or that you’ve been in. Did it start with mysterious passion? Or was it a casual rebound. Did you promise yourself “I can make this work…” Or were you find yourself drowning right off the bat.
What about at work. Remember when you were hired? What did you think about your boss? What about that new client? Were they on time? Did they pay you? Try to remember your first interactions — see if they left clues for things to come.
The template for your RELATIONSHIP DESTINY is set within the infancy of your relationship. Period. If you met while you were high, that’s now your history. If you took her to a rodeo and she hates you for it, that’s now sealed in memory. If you marry the girl from math class, you will always be seen as the “high school sweetheart” couple.
Does that mean you can’t change the relationship? Absolutely not. In fact, that’s what’s fun and amazing about this work – witnessing people create incredible turnarounds.
Quick story: several years ago, we were settled in an office space doing our work. A neighbor moved in to another office – bad energy right from the start. Territorial, noisy, controlling – you get the picture. We ended up moving out (not just because of the neighbor, but that was a factor). Well, that neighbor and I had a chance meeting recently. Now not only do we share some business together, we’re also becoming friends, and neither of us knew how much we deeply had in common.
See – if you play the wrong two notes together – they sound terrible. But if you play those notes in an entirely different song – you’ve got brilliant music. You’ve got to change the context in order to find the freedom. So it is with any relationship.
That said – the original context is set and remains until changed. It is set within days, sometimes minutes. Are you willing to pay attention to the clues of your initial meetings with the partners in your life? Are you willing to see the initial context in a totally new way, even flip it on its head? Including the context of how you were born, and who brought you into this world?
Think about it.
