Why Timing is Everything in a Relationship

Why Timing is Everything in a Relationship


In any endeavor in life, there's always two aspects to consider when evaluating your chances of success: 1. Those aspects you can control and 2. Those aspects which are out of your control.

Why Timing is Everything in a Relationship

If your goal is to be in a healthy, happy relationship there's a lot you can do to control that outcome. Unfortunately, you cannot control everything. For example, you can't control your partner's responses, beliefs, or behaviors. You can influence them, you can affect them, but you CANNOT control them.  This is a major reason why most of us have to go through several relationship failures before we meet the right person-since we cannot control our partners, we have to find the right one who is on the same page as us.

The same is true for approaching and meeting inpotential partners. There's things you can do which are under your control to create more attraction, romance, intrigue and interest, but if some other things which are not under your control, you will not interfere succeed no matter what you do.  One of those issues out of your control is TIMING. As they say, "timing is everything."  What does timing mean in this situation? Timing refers to circumstances being in alignMent to allow the potential mate to be willing and able to be in a relationship. If the person is already in a relationship, or they have been hurt badly and don't want to be in a relationship or they don't have time to be in a relationship, then the timing is not right.

It is my firm belief based on observation and experience that all things beingequal, timing is the most important ingredient to determining the potential viability of a romance or relationship. That is not to say that there is not a whole host of our important determining factors, but timing is crucial. When you look around throughout the day and see different couples around you, if you ever wonder why those two people are together, the most important reason was that they met and started dating when considering the timing was right. It could be that they would never have started dating if they met a week prior or a month later. Sure, they are attracted to each other and compatible in many ways, but the timing HAD to be right for them to be together, no matter how many other things they had in common.  It could've been that if they met at the wrong time, oneor both of the partners could have been in a relationship or just getting out of one and not ready to date yet.

So what's the moral of this story? The moral is that since timing is so crucial, you have to make yourself available in order to find the right person. You have to go out and be social and pro-actively put yourself out there in front of people. You never know who is or isn't available, but if you put yourself out there, you are greatly increasing the chances that you will find the right person-the person who is most compatible with you and is also completely available.  Get out there and make the principle of timing work for you.

5 Survival Tactics for When Everything Goes Wrong

* You've worked hard and are gearing up to
launch a new product when a vendor calls and
says that he can't get the new website up on
deadline which is "okay" because the graphic
artist's Computer crashed and your product
picture isn't ready anyway. They'll get back to
you.

* Taxes are two for those who got extensions
and, in some previous insanity, you agreed to do
them for friends and family. But you still need
information and the tax deadline looms.

* Your hubby needs reading classes but you
can't find the credit card which will give you the
big discount. It's gotta be around
somewhere.

* Your sister wants to borrow your AAA card-en
must be with the missingcredit card.

* Your business phone line stops working and
the telephone company insists the problem is in
the home and they can't get to you for a
week.

* It hasn't rained for weeks and yet the dog is
covered in mud and lying on the couch.

* Your largest client calls on a Friday afternoon
and requests the impossible. This was preceded
by your smallest client calling and demanding
that you drop everything as her every need is
* urgent *.

* The bathroom toilet stops working and then
starts leaking and your plumber is on
vacation.

What do you do when it all goes wrong?

1. Laugh.

Laugh hard and laugh often. Laugh like there's
no tomorrow-given the above, there may not
be.

Seriously though ... laughter will put you in a
much better frame of mind to deal with life's
interruptions without losing your sanity.

2. Breathe.

If laughter isn't possible, and sometimes it just
isn't, then focus on your breathing. ANDAs on
and out, in and out as deeply as possible until
your pulse racing stops or you let go of the
throat that somehow found its way into your
grasp.

3. Regroup.

When the walls are caving in around you, take
five minutes and figure out what you can do to
keep at least one thing moving forward.

Follow-up on the email that may land you a new
client. Submit your article to the various article
submission sites. Pay a couple of bills. Do one
thing, anything so that you can cross something
off your * list *. It's probably best if this
something doesn't involve interaction with
others!

4. Give thanks.

"What? Give thanks? Are you insane? "

I can hear the grumbling from here. Do it
anyway! Grab a piece of paper and make a list
of everything that you are thankful for-chances
are, you have it better than millions of
others.

Here's a quick list of things that I know I'm
grateful for: my health, family and friends, my
pets, my business and my clients, sunrises "and
sunsets, flowers, chocolate ice cream, the sound
of the ocean and a crisp New England fall
day.

5. Get out.

Get out of the house and out of theoffice.
Whether you choose to go for a walk, have lunch
with friends, go window shopping (leave credit
cards at home) or browse the shelves at your
local library, get out and enjoy yourself for a
bits. You'll return in a much refreshed frame of
mind and ready to tackle whatever life throws
your way.

Let's be real. Sometimes problems are just
problems and not "opportunities". Sometimes
lemons make bad lemonade. And not all clouds
have a silver lining. When everything goes
wrong, try one (or all) of the above techniques,
accept it and move on knowing that things
will get better!
