WAYS TO MAINTAIN RELEVANCE



WAYS TO MAINTAIN RELEVANCE

Relevance in Life
To be relevant to your society continuously demands that you remain useful to it. To attend relevance in life is easy but a task too hard maintain. Many today who go by the title ‘Former this, Former that” has suddenly lost true and relevant identity simply because they failed to understand time. Time is the currency of life and only the wise maximize it for transaction.
There is time for everything. Any time of the present age you waste puts you on the train of being named ‘Former’. Many people in our world today especially political and economic juggernauts thought that relevance can be maintained by killing and wasting lives, so to ensure that their names and faces regularly appear on the front page of newspapers. They lie, kill and deny people.
As a writer, I know relevance in my field can be maintained and is definitely possible.
You don’t have to do anything beyond your jurisdiction to maintain relevance. Everything you need to become relevant and maintain relevance is within you. In a jiffy, I will help you explore it.
v                  CREATIVITY (Be Creative)
Man is a created being called into the ministry of procreation. You are authorized to create what you want. By looking at nature, they are many potentials very many to explore and you cannot achieve this except you think. Everything that is today was created in the mind first. You don’t create by looking at others or copying them if you wish to be relevant in life.
Engage your mind to constructive thinking. When you stop thinking you start sinking and probably starts stinking. Any idea worth passing to the next generation must be a product of constructive thoughts.
Think of what you can create to make easier the life of people. For every problem you offer a solution for, your generation and posterity celebrates you for it.
Be creative, change your world.
v                  BE PURPOSE DRIVEN
Life is full of drivers. You are either driven by good or the bad motive. It is simple to understand that what drives a man determines where his/her journey will end.
To be purpose driven simply means; let the reason(s) or mission which a particular event or vision stands to achieve be your driving force beyond all obstacles. A purpose driven man is never deterred by the challenges of life. What make others breakdown only come to make him breakthrough.
A purpose driven man arrives his destination safely and his world never cease to celebrate him. His relevance is maintained over a long period of time.
v                  DO NOT THINK LESS OF WHO YOU ARE
Thoughts are very powerful. Thoughts make us, thoughts break us. Thoughts build us and thoughts destroy us. In fact, thoughts are imaginations with constructive and destructive possibilities.
Man is product of his thought life. As a man thinks in his heart, so is he. You don’t think like a poor and become rich. You don’t think like an insane man and become sane. You don’t think like a failure and become successful. And you can’t think like a coward and become a warrior.
When people make mention of future leaders, stop shifting it to others accept it. You have all it takes to maintain relevance. You stop at nothing until you see your world changed. You are who you proclaim, act and seen as. Offer people the real syllable they will read about you to be inspired in life.
v                AVOID BEING A FAULT FINDER
People who specialize in finding fault never see the good in others. They end up having faults all over them. When they try to find fault, they engage their whole being in the negative direction. This kind of people hardly makes lasting friends in life.
They are so full of themselves. They have little or no value for humanity.
The good in others that would have spurred your relevance if attended to are neglected when you are bent on finding fault. Your relevance diminishes and probably terminates when you find faults.
v                TALK ILL OF NOBODY
The world they say is a global village. The person you castigate and mesmerize may probably be at your back and unfortunately may be the gate-man in whose territory the solution you are looking for to move to the next level is locked in. What do you think would happen if he gets to know that he is all you need to move over?
No relationship, both same sex and opposite sex is permitted to end in a horrible and woeful way. You should understand that you don’t make friends to become enemies.
Your relevance is destroyed immediately you are at the mercies of people you talked ill of.

HOW YOU CAN KEEP YOUR LONG DISTANCE RELATIONSHIP ALIVE

Re-uniting love
Long distance relationships are tough to carry on, but it has its sweet memories and lingering expectations that make the relationship even stronger. There are both advantages and disadvantages of the long distance relationship. With a little understanding and loyalty, such relationships can thrive sans hassles.
Here are some tips to keep alive your long distance relationship.
Build a good communication channel: Building an effective communication channel is indeed necessary for keeping the long distance relationship alive.
Although telephone is the primary medium of communication to nourish a long distance relationship, there are hundreds of other communication channels that can be used. Why not flood the mailbox of your special someone or his cell phone inbox with sweet nothings like “Missing you!” and the like? Explore each of the communication channel just to reach out to him to spell in order to spell out those magical three words – “I love you”.
Chalk out a plan and meet: Are you missing him? Is it that the balmy breeze is reminding of the days spent together? If yes, reach out to him, mouth the truth and then make a plan to meet your beloved. Nothing could be more romantic than to meet your sweet someone staying miles apart at regular intervals. Chalk out a plan and meet your beloved. The very thought of meeting each other is sure to bring back the excitement in the relationship whilst eliminating your loneliness.
Woo your beloved: Surprise him with gifts and cards and woo his heart with those endless sweet murmurs, which alone can take him away to the land of sheer dreams. Let your creativity show magic and send him unexpected personalized gift items. This will indeed spice up your long distance relationship and make him feel nearer to you – no matter how far he is from you physically.
Capture and Share moments: Show him how you are arranging a picnic with your friends or having fun at a party. Capture and share all the interesting moments with that special someone who is miles away from you. This will surely eliminate the physical distance.
All that is needed is your imagination and your undying love for him and your willingness to keep your long distant relationship alive.

LIFE STORY OF LES BROWN


Les Brown
Les Brown has a dream, and he is living it. In 1986, broke and sleeping on the cold linoleum floor of his office, he began to pursue a career as a motivational speaker. By the early 1990s, he was one of the highest paid speakers in the nation. His company, Les Brown Unlimited, Inc., earned millions of dollars a year from his speaking tours and the sale of motivational tapes and materials. Brown's audience is wide: from Fortune 500 companies to automobile workers to prison inmates to special-education classes to ordinary individuals. His mission is to "get a message out that will help people become uncomfortable with their mediocrity," he explained to a reporter for Ebony magazine. "A lot of people are content with their discontent. I want to be a catalyst to enable them to see themselves having more and achieving more."
Brown's message works because "he kindles the warmth, humor, and well being in a society that's seen the gradual disintegration of families and mounting technology and alienation in industry," Maureen McDonald wrote in the Detroiter. Brown knows the function of the able individual in a worn community: he delivers not only nurturing words but money as well, donating 20 percent of his business revenues to fund drug prevention programs. His message also works, and for a stronger reason, because he is not an outsider, an academic who offers a theoretical prescription. "I can't lecture on something unless I am living it," Brown wrote in his 1992 bestseller Live Your Dreams. He connects with other people's lives-their misfortunes and missed opportunities-because he has been through it all and triumphed.
Humble Beginnings
Leslie Calvin Brown and his twin brother, Wesley, were born on February 17, 1945, on the floor of an abandoned building in Liberty City, a low-income section of Miami, Florida. Their birth mother, married at the time to a soldier stationed overseas, had become pregnant by another man and went to Miami secretly to give birth to her sons. Three weeks later, she gave them away. At six weeks of age, both boys were adopted by Mamie Brown, a 38-year-old unmarried cafeteria cook and domestic. The importance of her entrance into his life, Brown concludes, was immeasurable. "Everything I am and everything I have I owe to my mother," he told Rachel L. Jones of the Detroit Free Press. "Her strength and character are my greatest inspiration, always have been and always will be."
The confidence that Brown's adoptive mother had in him, the belief that he was capable of greatness, was not shared by his teachers. As a child he found excitement in typical boyhood misadventures. He liked to have fun, and he liked attention. Overactive and mischievous, Brown was a poor student because he was unable to concentrate, especially in reading. His restlessness and inattentiveness, coupled with his teachers' insufficient insight into his true capabilities, resulted in his being labeled "educably mentally retarded" in the fifth grade. It was a label he found hard to remove, in large part because he did not try. "They said I was slow so I held to that pace," he recounted in his book.
Teacher Encouraged Him
A major lesson Brown imparts early in Live Your Dreams is that "there comes a time when you have to drop your burdens in order to fight for yourself and your dreams." It was another significant figure in Brown's early life who awakened his listless consciousness and brought about this awareness: LeRoy Washington, a speech and drama instructor at Booker T. Washington High School in Miami. While in high school, Brown "used to fantasize being onstage speaking to thousands of people," he related to Jones, "and I used to write on pieces of paper, 'I am the world's greatest orator."'
But it wasn't until he encountered Washington that he truly learned of the sound and power of eloquent speech to stir and motivate. Brown related in his book that when he once told Washington in class that he couldn't perform a task because he was educably mentally retarded, the instructor responded, "Do Not Ever Say That Again! Some-one's opinion of you does Not have to become Your reality." Those words provided Brown's liberation from his debilitating label. "The limitations you have, and the negative things that you internalize are given to you by the world," he wrote of his realization. "The things that empower you-the possibilities-come from within."
Employed after high school as a city sanitation worker, but determined to achieve what he desired-perhaps for the first time in his life-Brown pursued a career in radio broadcasting. He had been enthralled throughout his life with the almost music-like patter of disc jockeys, so he repeatedly bothered the owner of a local radio station about a position until the owner relented. Having no experience, Brown was hired to perform odd jobs. Firmly intent on becoming a deejay, he learned all he could about the workings of a radio station. One day, when a disc jockey became drunk on the air and Brown was the only other person at the station, he filled in at the microphone. Impressed, the owner of the station promoted Brown to part-time and then full-time disc jockey.
In the late 1960s, Brown moved to Columbus, Ohio, where he had a top-rated radio program, and was eventually given added duties as broadcast manager. Here his world widened. He became more socially conscious and more of an activist, urging his listeners to political action. Part of the motivation behind this fervor came from Mike Williams, the station's news director and an activist who would eventually oversee Brown's motivational speaking tours and programs. "I thought he was a master communicator," Williams told Cheryl Lavin of the Chicago Tribune. "I knew it was a gift. I saw him as an international figure. I saw him in very large situations, moving audiences." But the owners of the radio station thought Brown was becoming too controversial of a figure. He was fired.
Became Ohio Legislator
Urged on by Williams, Brown ran for the Ohio State Legislature, winning the seat of the 29th House District. In his first year, he passed more legislation than any other freshman representative in Ohio legislative history. In his third term, he served as chair of the Human Resources Committee. But he had to leave the state house in 1981 in order to care for his ailing mother in Florida. While in Miami, continuing his focus on social issues, Brown developed a youth career training program and held community meetings, speaking out on social injustice.
Again, controversies arose around him. The Dade County state's attorney general investigated his handling of the youth program. After a year, during which time Brown openly invited any inquiry, the case was dropped: no improprieties were found. The motivating factor behind the criticisms, Brown believed, was jealousy. "A lot of people felt threatened and offended because I came on very strong," he told Jones, "and I had an instant following they couldn't get." This effect was not lost on Brown. Encouraged again by Williams and by a chance encounter with motivational millionaire Zig Ziglar, who was earning $10,000 for one-hour talks, Brown decided to become a motivational speaker.
"Life takes on meaning when you become motivated, set goals, and charge after them in an unstoppable manner," Brown wrote in Live Your Dreams. It is a maxim he learned well. When he entered the motivational speaking arena in the mid-1980s, he had virtually nothing, having moved to Detroit with his clothes and just one tape of his motivational speeches. He rented an office that he shared with an attorney. He worked hard and always seemed to be the first one there in the morning and the last one there at night. Indeed, he never left the office, having to sleep on the cold floor because he could not afford an apartment. But he welcomed this ascetic lifestyle. "I didn't even want a blanket or a pallet on the floor," he explained to Jones. "I wanted it to be hard and cold so it would motivate me to keep striving. I didn't want to get soft."
Became "The Motivator"
Brown read books on public speaking and studied the habits of established speakers. He first spoke to grade school students, then high school students. Clubs and organizations followed. Less than four years later, in 1989, he received the National Speakers Association's highest award-the Council of Peers Award of Excellence-becoming the first African American to receive such an honor. He was known in professional circles as "The Motivator."
"Victories can become obstacles to your development if you unconsciously pause too long to savor them," Brown wrote in his book. "Too many people interpret success as sainthood. Success does not make you a great person; how you deal with it decides that. You must not allow your victories to become ends unto themselves." His goal was not just to win awards, but to inspire people to pursue their own goals.
In 1990, Brown reached for a wider audience by recording the first in a series of motivational speech presentations for the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS-TV). He conducted motivational training sessions not only for executives of corporations such as American Telephone and Telegraph, General Electric, and Procter & Gamble, but also for prison inmates and-remembering his own back-ground-for special education students in high schools. "We all have a responsibility to give something back," he told a reporter for Upscale. "I am who I am because of the relationships I have developed, because of the people who have enriched my life."
Brown details his life and the relationships that have helped shape it in his book Live Your Dreams. Much more than a simple autobiography, the book, which is divided into ten chapters followed by written exercises in a built-in workbook, focuses on areas of personal deficiency-such as fear, inattentiveness, and laziness-as well as on areas of personal value, such as self-knowledge, courage, and dreams. Brown makes vague, personal faults understandable and ambitious virtues attainable by elaborating on them through personal or historical narratives that are almost parable-like. He moves easily between the ordinary and the extraordinary to emphasize his point. For instance, a discussion about a boy who was scared of a bulldog that constantly chased him until he realized the dog lacked teeth might be followed on the next page by a discussion of how basketball superstar Michael Jordan handles the pressures of being a public persona.
To prove a maxim, Brown links the worldly with the mundane. In Live Your Dreams, he retells the stories of Terry Anderson, the Associated Press correspondent held hostage for seven years by Shiite Muslims, and that of an anonymous young boy who had to fight a neighborhood bully on a school bus. For further reinforcement, Brown sprinkles quotes throughout from historical figures such as former U.S. president Theodore Roosevelt, American nature writer Henry David Thoreau, and German poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and from personal figures such as teacher LeRoy Washington and his own mother, Mamie.
The book's idealistic tone is tempered by an acceptance of life's realities. "You will be cruising along, knocking them dead, in full synchronization-and then you'll hit the speed bumps," Brown wrote. "You miss a bus. Your paycheck bounces. Your car won't start. That's life. Maybe it is set up that way so that we learn and grow." Brown knows this firsthand and that is his point: he has faced life's obstacles and has been inspired to overcome them in quest of his own dreams, so he tries to inspire those whose dreams are similarly thwarted by life's misadventures.
"I am intrigued by the concept of selling people on their own greatness with the same fervor that Madison Avenue sells them on the wondrous attributes of Nike athletic shoes, Chevy trucks, and Calvin Klein jeans," Brown wrote in Live Your Dreams. "What if our young people heard encouragement to dream and strive as many times a day as they are exhorted to drink Dr. Pepper or to go to the land of Mickey Mouse?" Brown got his chance to answer this question and share his philosophies with his widest audience ever when his own television talk show, the Les Brown Show, debuted in the fall of 1993. It was short-lived, despite receiving good ratings. The program, which was Brown's most ambitious project to date, was syndicated by King World, the same company that distributes the popular Oprah program. "I think people are ready to be entertained and inspired and I want to make them feel good about themselves," he explained to Jefferson Graham of USA Today. "I want to use TV in a way in which it's never been used before-to empower people."
Books Became Best-Sellers
On August 29, 1995, Brown married Gladys Knight, the famous soul singer, in a private ceremony in Las Vegas, Nevada. They both had been married previously and between them had ten children and seven gradnchildren. The next year, Brown released his next book, It's Not Over Until You Win!: How to Become the Person You Always Wanted to Be-No Matter What the Obstacle, which covered a wide array of topics ranging from his marriage to the quality of television. A Publishers Weekly reviewer commented, "This volume successfully translates Brown's natural charisma from the podium to the page." His two books together sold more than half a million copies.
After the cancellation of his television show, Brown briefly went to work for radio station WRKS in New York then, in October of 1996, was hired on as morning host at WBLS, also in New York. However, in May of 1997 he announced that he would be leaving his job to spend more time on his speaking career and to undergo treatments for prostate cancer. He and Knight announced the next month that they were divorcing due to irreconcilable differences, though he claimed the two would remain friendly.
Into 1998, Brown's empire remained strong; he was reaping about $4.5 million per year from speaking engagements and television appearances. His Detroit-based firm continued to serve high-profile clients such as Chrysler, 3M, and Xerox Corporation. "Downsizing trends and the changing global market require people to reinvent themselves and think like entrepreneurs," Brown stated in Black Enterprise. In addition, Brown was branching out to train future public speakers, concentrating on promoting the field to more minorities.

Counsel: You too can become like him by ensuring that;
      1. you discover the real you.
      2. you recover from the failures of the past.
      3. you live in the now.
      4. plan for your future even as you face the battles of today and
      5. always remember that God created you. Pray to Him and always worship Him.

HOW TO OVERCOME POVERTY


The agony of poverty
Poverty can be defined as a persistent shortage of the financial means necessary to upholding a relatively acceptable or comfortable quality of life. Rising above poverty involves improving several aspects of your personal and financial well-being using a number of different methods.
Twenty-first century large share of the world's population today suffers with old enemy of poverty. This problem is responsible for bringing a large contingent of mostly young people in the theft, drugs and organized crime, these actions, in many cases are alternatives for these people to be able to survive and be accepted in the environment in which they live.
Poverty is increasing every day. Many, who never believed they would lose their homes, be in debt, and now stand in lines for food, are facing reality. Their biggest problem is how to overcome poverty. It might interest you to know that at the start of the 21st century, 1.2 billion people live in abject poverty. More than 800 million people go to bed hungry and 50,000 people die every day from poverty-related causes. In Nigeria; according to the report of the Nigerian Bureau of Statistics, published on the Nigerian Tribune dated 13th February 2012 the percentage of Nigerians living in absolute poverty — those who can afford only the bare essentials of food, shelter and clothing — rose to 60.9 per cent in 2010, compared with 54.7 per cent in 2004 and recently, there is fear that the percentage of poverty might have risen to 71.5, 61.9 or 62.8 percentage in 2012 since the poverty in Nigeria is rising with almost 100 million people living on less than $1 a day despite strong growth in the economy.
All you see is not all there is and as such; there is dare need to overcome poverty both in the present and in the future. Below are the few steps you must undertake to out-smart and overcome poverty.
Avoid counter-productive spending behaviors. Assuming responsibility for ending poverty entails cutting habits out of your life that contribute to poverty.
  • Unnecessary spending. Don't spend money on anything you don't need.
  • Betting on chance, rather than planning for a future. Studies show that the poor spend nearly twice as much on lottery tickets than the affluent. Statistically speaking, this type of spending rarely pays off, and contributes to poverty.
Take advantage of government welfare programs. These programs can be used as a stepping stone for overcoming poverty; you can use the funds to offset your living expenses while you advance your financial situation. Apply with local, state and national government agencies for things like agricultural, healthcare (NHIS), education loans and grants. Recently in Abia state, CBN partnered with the state government to release 1 billion naira to farmers in the state as an agricultural loan. Discover and always be at alert to know which government agencies is granting loans to the citizens.

Increase your income. To effectively end poverty requires that you have a steady stream of income that not only covers your monthly financial obligations, but that also allows you to save for and invest in a future without poverty. You may employ 1 or a combination of these methods to increase your income:
  • Job advancement. Ask for a raise at your current job, or apply for a higher-paying position within your organization of employment.
  • Multi-tasking/second job. Taking a part-time job on the side can provide you with the temporary means for overcoming poverty while you work toward more permanent, full-time opportunities.
  • Side work. If you have a marketable talent or skill, then you can use it to generate extra income to overcome poverty. For example, you can cook meals, write articles for magazine companies, do handyman repairs or paint to make extra money.
  • Alternatives to occupational income. Auctioning items on auction websites, donating blood and participating in business research studies are examples of ways you can increase your income outside of work.
Learn about money management. When you are on a restricted budget, it is important that you take measures to organize and allocate your income funds so that you can meet your financial obligations as well as accounting for your future goals. Meet with a professional at a financial institution to discuss balancing a checking account, creating a savings plan and using credit accounts. You can also take advantage of the business seminars organized within your locality.

Secure your future. Once you overcome poverty in the present, you can ensure your chances at staying poverty-free by taking the following steps:
  • Education. Studies show that education is invaluable to increasing your income and overcoming poverty for good. Education opens the door to numerous and variety of employment opportunities that would otherwise be unavailable to a mere man. Moreover, education equips you better to navigate through the sometimes complex network of government aid programs and money management techniques - both of which contribute to your ability to stay out of poverty.
  • Investments. Speak with a financial advisor about investment vehicles that you can use to leverage a small amount of money into a larger one. This way you can make your money work for you, toward your goal of permanently overcoming poverty.
  • Job benefits. Invest in employer retirement programs. Even the smallest monthly investment will add up over the long run. If your company does not have such programs, look out for other ones.

How To Become A Motivational Speaker


Become a leader by inspiring others.
Are you an engaging speaker who has had many interesting, rewarding experiences? Motivate yourself to motivate others and get paid for doing so.

Steps

  1. Evaluate your "special" message. Consider what it is that you have to say that would be of value to others. Have you experienced great adversity, or received some special education? In order to succeed as a motivational speaker, your message must be connected to the needs and aspirations of your audience.
  2. Carve out your niche. Motivational speaking is, in many ways, a product that must be sold. Why should someone pay to hear you impart your message? Be able to articulate your unique experiences and show exactly how your message can benefit your listeners.
  3. Create an outline of your presentation. This will be used not only to provide a framework for your talk but also as a marketing piece for potential clients. Furthermore, many people are visual learners and can gain more from a visual representation than a spoken one.
  4. Contact large, not-for-profit corporations and professional groups and make it clear you are available. While there is nothing wrong with directly asking for a gig, announcing your availability will let them feel privileged to work with you.
  5. Contact speakers' bureaus and notify them of your availability. Some speakers' bureaus charge you to list your services, others charge nothing. Most bureaus take a percentage for acting as your agent. Search for "speakers' bureaus" on the Internet. Also make sure your marketing material is "bureau friendly". You can do this by removing your contact information and website URL from all marketing material. This ensures that when they send your information to prospective clients they keep the integrity of the working relationship.
  6. You must be willing to work for free to get your name out. Once others hear your interesting story or experience, they may want to hire you. Inform everyone you know that you are available for organizations who want a good motivational speaker. Volunteer to speak at service clubs in your area.
  7. Write and publish articles or books in order to establish yourself as an authority in your subject. You do not need to publish a book people will find in the local bookstore. Post to websites like wikiHow and submit to on-line magazines and blogs.
  8. Draw up a written agreement, or contract, for all engagements. The written agreement should contain, among other matters, how the fees will be paid (e.g., cash, check, over time), how long you are expected to speak, whether you will be reimbursed for travel expenses, and the time and date. This will help to avoid any disputes at a later time.
  9. Always ask for feedback after every presentation even if you feel confident that you have nailed it. Whether you prefer that the audience fill-up a standard form or just ask them to drop you a note at a fishbowl on a side table, chances are good that you will be a better motivational speaker if you develop this habit. Positive feedback will inspire you while negative feedback will make you aspire to do better. After all, FEEDBACK is indeed the breakfast of success! Emchis Motivational Network on Facebook

HOW YOU CAN SECURE AND MAINTAIN A HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP

Every relationship is delicate and so your love life is. Maintain your love life in such a way that frustration and distance can never peep into your relationship. Periodical maladjustments, fighting, mutual or one-sided frustration may indicate the loss of balance in the relationship. The time both of you share with each-other should not reduce rapidly. Distance inasmuch as it is a challenge in relationship can still be managed when constant communication exist but lack of communication remains the worst of barrier in any relationship. Remember, communication deepens relationship. Infidelity is like a secret enemy that can eat up your peace of mind and relationship bliss.
Turning to each-other without hesitation and opening up is required to resolve the problems. Don’t be shy talking to him or her anytime. Be more concerned to express yourself in a polite way when annoyed than you should be towards food and when trying to tailor down your grievances, never bring the case of your relationship into it (I mean, never threaten your relationship). For instance; if your fiancĂ© has refused to call or send you text messages for a long time, when trying to complain never threaten him of quitting the relationship simply because he has not called for a long while. You are complaining because you wish to know why not because you wish to quit. Get it RIGHT.
A straightforward and fair and open communication can make things better. Catch the things the moment you are feeling something wrong. Do not let it go too far. Find the reason of frustration in your partner and think positively and talk and act likewise to solve it.
Spending happy time will always strengthens the relationship. A positive atmosphere full of love and commitment can surely bring happiness into your life. Do not follow your partner if he or she has dubious activities towards infidelity. Rather try to take him or her on your stride. Why do you let your partner go away with other? Do not by act of carelessness suggest to your partner that you are incompetent. Once he or she finds out that you are incompetent, he or she looks out elsewhere and infidelity sets in.
Priority makes things improved. So, give your relationship good amount of priority so that your partner also feels important. Maintaining relationship is an art and you cannot ignore it. A healthy relationship is always better than a stable one where both just maintain relation as a formality. Boredom, if it comes into a relationship, can create scopes for both the partners to look outside for a real change. Beware of it! Change the pattern of your living and fulfill the expectations of the other. Do not be too demanding so that you can handle his or her shortcomings.
You can reduce all these chances of infidelity by rejuvenating your relationship wisely. Share joy and laughter with your partner and engage into funny activities and playing. Think of the importance of one another and share it verbally. Trust and commitment can make the relationship strong, loving and ever-blooming. Be sure you can trust your partner. If you can’t in the past, try again. You learn everyday as much as you eat every day.
Stay clear of pre-marital sex.
