Get Centered Part 2 | LQ019

Love Quirks

Welcome back! Last time, we delved into the importance of understanding our centers in relationships. Today, we're building on that by exploring how our centers influence communication by breaking down the difference between perspective-taking and understanding our centers in relationships.

Perspective-taking is about seeing things from another's viewpoint, influenced by mood and context. Meanwhile, our centers guide our decisions consistently, regardless of mood. We naturally invest our time and energy into our center focus, assuming others should prioritize the same. But recognizing our center and aligning it with our partner's reveals how it shapes our choices, fostering compassion. Shifting the focus to shared values creates a solid foundation for decision-making, avoiding conflicts over priorities.
