I’m on the Hug Program
Filed Under Making changes |
I want Dana to hug me more, so I needed to figure out a way to get her to do it. Without telling her what she was doing wrong, what needed to be changed or that I wanted to be hugged “right now!”.My solution? I will hug her more. I will hug her the way I want to be hugged. I will do it because I want to hug her, not because I want her to hug me. It suddenly made perfect sense. I can only change myself. Well, I can’t get people to change by forcing them, I can’t expect them to want to change because they want to change when I am forcing them to change because I want them to change. It’s not the same. So, if I want something to change, I need to change it.
So, I’m on the Hug Program.
It’s working great. I get more hugs and we are both happier already. It’s only been 2 days and the difference is great.
