Comments on: How to “Nudge” Your Partner to Change https://cruciallearning.com/blog/how-to-nudge-your-partner-to-change/ VitalSmarts is now Crucial Learning Thu, 16 Feb 2023 14:25:27 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5.2 By: Nancy Roberts https://cruciallearning.com/blog/how-to-nudge-your-partner-to-change/#comment-10589 Thu, 16 Feb 2023 14:25:27 +0000 https://cruciallearning.com/?p=17782#comment-10589 This article reminds me of one of my favorite mantras, “If it triggers me, it’s about me.”

And if that is true, then I can also assume if it triggers them, it’s about them. A great way to remember that most things in life are projection and not to take things personally!

P.S This article could very well be titled ‘ how to keep sight of respect n the face of disagreement or irritation’ 🙂

Are you prepared for that? If you are a manager or supervisor, it doesn’t always work to manage the way you do at work. You will get the response, I’m not one of your employees.

I have been a practitioner and teacher of these concepts for two decades, but still found many of the nuances here to be fresh and helpful. I especially appreciate your take on Mastering My Stories. Recognizing an issue as “my problem, not yours” is very powerful. Thank you.

They may not have an issue with what you perceive as a disorganized approach to their life, and beginning with that understanding may be critical. The adage that opposites attract is often true and adds to the spice of life! Not all behaviors need to be altered and GTD isn’t for everyone.
