If you want to know the importance of relationship vision and how it can help you to contribute to your relationship, then this blog is for you.
Hello everyone. Before anything else, let me introduce myself first.
I am Thomas Isaac Castro, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist from California, and my ultimate goal is to be able to serve relationships throughout the world.
I am aware that there are a lot of couples nowadays that are facing different relationship challenges.
That’s why I am here to help.
In this article, I will be discussing the relationship vision.
But what does the vision in a relationship mean?
Your vision for your relationship gives your dating and love life focus and direction.
Relationship vision helps each individual to align their behaviors with where they want to take their relationship.
For you to have a better understanding of relationship vision, I will break it down into three (3) necessary things that you should know.
Relationship Vision
1.) What is the importance of relationship vision?
2.) What is the effective relationship vision for couple
3.) How your relationship vision changes your individual behavior?
What is the importance of relationship vision?
Having a clear relationship vision gives you a strong foundation for building a thriving and connected relationship.
It serves as your direction as a couple to keep your love burning for each other.
Having an overall goal and purpose for your relationship helps to direct individual and relationship behaviors
Without relationship vision, difficult times brink or break our relationships.
But if you establish your relationship vision with your partner proactively, I’m sure that it will be easier for the both of you to overcome the challenges that may come.
What is the effective relationship vision for couples?
Since every relationship is unique and distinct from the other, there is no such formula to create a relationship vision that will work for every couple.
But what I can suggest is that you and your partner have a serious talk about what you really want to happen in your relationship.
You must come up with the same goal and you must know the strengths and weaknesses of each other for you to be able to understand the needs of your partner.
Also, observe what your partner’s love language is so it will be easier for you to know how you can make him/her happy and satisfied.
Some questions that might help you to develop your relationship vision:
1.) What do we want our relationship to feel like?
2.) How do we want to resolve challenging moments?
3.) What kinds of interactions do we need to promote connection?
How your relationship vision changes your individual behavior?
Your relationship vision will direct your behavior.
Ultimately, your behavior will determine whether you get to realize the goals of your relationship.
What I can suggest to you is that you must always remember your vision for your relationship before taking any actions.
Most of the time, we tend to act based on our emotions, and the problem is, whenever we get angry, we tend to hurt our partner verbally or emotionally.
That’s why it is important for you to base your actions on your relationship vision rather than your emotions.
As an example; If you and your partner decide that your goal is to reduce your arguments, then you must do your personal work to address emotional and mental hooks that prevent you from being loving.
If you create a relationship vision that you will prioritize your partner over other things, your behavior will need to align with that vision to realize your relationship goals.
At the end of the day, your consistency of vision oriented behaviors is the most important thing for your relationship to be effective.
Conclusion
I hope that this blog about relationship vision will help you understand its importance in every couple’s relationship.
Always remember that setting a vision for your relationship will be a great way for you to have a specific goal and purpose.
And when you come up with one, be consistent and remember that your relationship vision must be the basis for the actions that you will take.
