Stress Management Tips That No One Tells You About - How To Ease Relationship Stress


Do you think that you need help in life? Life often feels so stressful and it seems that I have so much going on. It seems that I have no way to finish all the tasks I have at hand. I have found a simple and effective principle to make life work so much easier. I think of this principle like the grease that makes an engine run more smoothly. This is the principle of reciprocity. You may have heard of this before but I think if you read closely you will see that I have a little different spin on this that will make it work just for you.

Mr. Webster says that reciprocity is "A mutual exchange of privileges". Here is how the principle of reciprocity is going to change your life. Do you think you have barely enough time to get things done? Do you have it in your mind that your day cannot hold anything else? My advice is probably going to tick you off then. My advice is to reach out and help someone else. Don't just help someone by opening a door for them, do something drastic. Most importantly do it without hope of return. You heard me right you cannot expect anything back from these actions. That is the solution to making this work in your life. If you will just trust me and give this a try you will see it works.

You see that is how the principle of reciprocity works. You reach out to others and you do something that is helpful and completely above and beyond. You do it all without hope that they can do anything in return. Then the magic happens. The simple fact is the more kindness you give the more that will be given back to you. It becomes a mutual exchange of privileges. You and those around you begin to multiply your abilities, your strengths, your ability to manage time.

"Do you think this can help in my love life?" one person asked me. It not only can help, it is essential for a relationship. I want to keep stressing that for this to work you must give freely and not expect anything in return. The principle dies on the works of a person with selfish motives. This may all seem very Pollyanna to you, but I can tell you from experience time and time again that it works, and it works very well.
