Positivel Thinking and Wisdom for Relocation


The idea of moving to another city, state or even country can be both exciting and scary. Relocation can also create stress on the entire family. There are so many things to do and plan for, and positive thinking techniques can help make your move easier and less stressful.
Making the Decision
When a person’s company moves or they’re given a promotion that requires moving, the decision to relocate is pretty much made for them. There are people who live in areas where their companies have closed down and no other employment is available.  Oftentimes, these people must move just so that they can become gainfully employed. 
The best thing to do is to sit down and create a list of pros and cons regarding the move.  The positive thinking technique best used for this is visualization. Imagine yourself in your new situation. Close your eyes and actually picture yourself in your new job.  Think about the benefits it would provide. You can use the same visualization technique to imagine life without a job. Remember that there are also opportunities for personal development, so if it’s feasible, consider this option too.

Imagine a New Home
Imagine your move as a great adventure for the entire family. The whole family can benefit from positive thinking techniques when relocating. Have everybody do this separately to use visualization for what the home will be like. Call a family meeting to discuss what everyone came up with during their visualization session. Let everybody take turns discussing what they would like. Even little ones can participate and add things like a swing set or a pool. It’s important for their self-esteem to be included.
House Hunting from a Distance
It can be difficult to hunt for houses when you are currently far away. Hopefully, you have made notes of all of the things that your family envisioned with the positive thinking exercise. By trying to find a home that will make everyone happy, you will be enhancing their personal growth and self-esteem.
Contact a real estate agent in the locality where you will be moving. Explain your situation and run down the list of requirements.  Ask the agent to send you all of the fact sheets on properties that meet your requirements. This will give you the time to go over all of the details before traveling to see the homes.
Continue the Positive Thinking Exercises
Once you have the fact sheets from the real estate agent, you’ll need to take some time to scrutinize the properties. It’s best if you do this with your spouse, but without your children. Many agents will automatically send listings of homes that are out of your price range. It may be a good idea to eliminate those before the kids see them.
Now, gather the family and go through the same positive thinking process as before. Remember, your children’ personal development depends on their inclusion in the move. Let everyone take some time to organize the homes from the one they like best to the one they like least. Compare these rankings and have a family discussion to find out why or why not everyone made their selections.
Narrowing It Down
Narrow the selections down to a manageable number for viewing the homes. Again, you can visualize your family in each one of them. Consider the neighborhoods so that you’ll be in an area conducive to your family’s personal growth and success in life.
Take a Trip

Don’t buy a home sight unseen. Visit all of the homes on your list and see how they measure up to what you had expected. Take pictures and send them to your family if you want to include them in the process. Don’t sign a contract until you talk it over with your family and get an  inspection of your prospective home. If you follow these positive thinking techniques, you will have a better shot of success with life in your new home and neighborhood, and you and your family will look forward to the move.

Wisdom for Marriage Relationships and Affairs


Extramarital affairs are the number one cause of couples seeking advice for their marriage relationships. These infidelities create a great strain on the marriage, and can harm the entire family as well. There are some people who can never get past their spouse’s infidelity, and those marriages usually end up in divorce court. However, there are other couples who want to save their marriages and will work hard to do it.  These tips can help you keep your marriage relationship intact.
Dealing with the Pain          
A spouse’s affair can inflict incredible pain on their partner. Your heart can feel completely broken because of the betrayal.  This is a normal reaction to finding out about your spouse’s extramarital affairs.
It often helps to talk to someone you trust about the way you are feeling, and learn from their wisdom. This could be a close and personal friend, a dear family member or even a trusted member of the clergy. Your confidant should either be married themselves, or have experience counseling people on relationships. You should never seek marriage advice from someone that has just gone through a divorce, as their advice might be tainted from their pain.
Talking to Your Spouse
You’ll need to eventually talk to your spouse about how you feel. Let them know that you are in pain over this betrayal. It is important to talk calmly about it, even though you are angry and hurt. A calm discussion will be more beneficial than a heated argument.
Once you have explained how you are feeling, you can ask about the affair. You have every right to ask any questions about it, and your spouse should be willing to answer.  If you and your spouse want to work on your marriage, you will need to clear the air and get everything about the infidelity out in the open. Buried details can eat away at marriage relationships and cause the union to fail.
Rebuilding Trust
Marriage relationships must be built on love and trust. Once that trust is gone, it must be reestablished in order to save your marriage. Both of you will need to work on this diligently. You will need to regain that trust you once had, and your spouse will need to earn that trust back. This isn’t an easy task, but it isn’t impossible.
Everything that your spouse does should be like an open book for you now. There shouldn’t be locks for the cell phone or computer. You should have access to all passwords as well. Although in normal marriage relationships it is never advisable to go through your spouse’s private things, after an affair it can help to rebuild the trust and save your marriage.
When All Else Fails
In some marriage relationships, professional counseling is needed after extramarital affairs. There is no shame in seeking help from a counselor to save your marriage. It is essential that you both seek family therapy to overcome this infidelity.
Counselors deal with this issue every day, and they are experts in helping people find ways to make their marriage relationships survive affairs. It is the norm for the therapist to see each of you alone, and then again as a couple. This will give the counselor time to find out what each of you are thinking and feeling separately. He or she will also be able to give you specific marriage relationships advice for your situation.
Once together, your counselor will ask you both if you really want to save your marriage. Don’t be alarmed, as this is a standard question. The therapist will then begin to teach you the skills that you need to overcome this major breach of trust.
Above everything else, you need to regain faith in yourself. It is not your fault, if your partner cheated on you. You can save your marriage with dignity by believing in yourself. You can watch wisdom videos that motivate you to rebuild self-confidence and faith in yourself to save your marriage.
