In some parts of the world, people love their steady detrimental diet of autonomy. They’re constantly forced-fed with the notion of self-sufficiency, such as “you don’t need someone in your life” or “you can be a better person without others,” as if it’s a good thing.
Ingesting those junk food thoughts may result in an overweight ego; consequently, they become malnourished—incapable of creating meaningful and fulfilling relationships.
If this sounds like you, take a breather and try to change this me-first-and-others-second mentality. Why? Because you tend to not notice when you’re slowly losing interest in others if you’re too focused on yourself.
For example, you neglect family and friends because you spend extra time in the office. Or you dismiss any form of intimacy because you prefer to satisfy yourself more.
If you think it’s high time to change to create meaningful and fulfilling relationships with the people in your life, take heed of these three tips.
Confront Your Self-Limiting Beliefs
It’s important to recognize that the enemy is within you. Think about certain circumstances when you’re afraid to reach out to your family and friends during life struggles or relationship problems.
Why do you prefer to face everything alone? Are you trying to prove to them that you can handle yourself? Do you want to show the world that self-reliance means being strong?
Sure, these self-limiting beliefs might bring out the best in you as a person but not in creating meaningful and fulfilling relationships. You’ll be surprised that you can do more if you reach out to your family, friends, and other people in your life.
Focus On Your Interpersonal Sphere of Influence (SOI)
There are multiple versions of SOIs out there. But the one that you should focus on is your interpersonal circle, which is where your peers, friends, and family belong.
How is this relevant?
Well, ask yourself how many people know the real you.
Do your parents know anything about your love life? Do your friends know your long-term goals?
If you’re hiding behind the curtain, it’s time to draw it and start sharing your world with the people who matter most in your interpersonal sphere of influence. And once you’re confident enough, you can start reaching out to people outside your social circle.
Talk about Things That Matter
What better way to create meaningful and fulfilling relationships than engaging in genuine conversations?
Don’t be like most people who unknowingly keep conversations shallow. There’s nothing wrong with making small talk, but limiting yourself to that is a mistake in creating meaningful and fulfilling relationships.
Try to find common ground and talk about it to keep relationships interesting. Give them the chance to know the things that matter to you, and in return, they’ll share their perspective on that subject and let you know about things that matter to them as well. Doing so can make you feel genuinely connected to them and let you see them from a different point of view.
All in all, don’t let your beliefs hinder you from reaching out to your family and friends—you need them to teach you valuable life lessons, love you, and help you grow.
