The first step towards healing is acknowledging ourselves and validating our feelings.

But it’s hard because we are so used to being unkind, critical, and judgmental to ourselves that we unknowingly use the same voice to talk to others, especially our loved ones.

How is this working out for us? How can we learn to be less judgmental and more kind towards ourselves?

Learn to Acknowledge and Validate yourself Acknowledgement and Validation is a skill that we all thought we knew how to do, but in reality, really requires some learning! I'm grateful...

You can only make the best decisions in each moment you live in, as there’s no way you can tell exactly how your current decision will affect your future. You can only make your best guess at most.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Regrets and realization (of mistakes) happens only after. You couldn’t have known at the point of decision making. So don’t beat yourself up for the past decisions you’ve made. Look towards making conscious decisions from this moment on. Be present and at peace with your every decision. It’s a choice you can make! ❤️

Punishment requires a power difference, with the powerful person hurting the less powerful person. Punishment is all about control. And punishment is a poor teacher.

“The gift of life is the gift of choice that nobody can take away from you. You have UNLIMITED choices! If you make the wrong choice, you can try to correct it with another choice and make it right.

Your life is the most precious gift you’ll ever have. And it’s the only one you have.

You come to this world alone, and you will leave alone. Who you meet in between is a challenge of how you deal with your life.

No matter how bad something is in your life, it has a time limit. And no matter how good something is going on in your life, that too has a time limit.”

You are the author of your narrative. And this means that you are also its editor. Don't like your story? Rewrite it. ❤️ 10/06/2020

What’s the story that you constantly tell yourself?

“Aiya, it’ll never work out.”

“I’m so bad at this. I can never do it well.”

“People will judge me for sure.”

“I always fail at ______________.”

How can you change the story?

“It didn’t work out, but it doesn’t mean it won’t work out forever!”

“I’m so bad at this! What else can I do/find to help me succeed?”

“Maybe people might judge me, but why does it matter?”

“I seem to be stuck at this ______________, what do I need to resolve in order to move forward?”

What are you telling yourself? What are you NOT telling yourself?

You are the author of your narrative. And this means that you are also its editor. Don't like your story? Rewrite it. ❤️

As Asians, we don't really openly show our affection and love. I'm curious what would these positive interactions look like in our Singaporean context? 😅

1. Showing Interest:
"B, why you so angry sia?"

2. Expressing Affection
"you eat already?"

3. Demonstrating someone matters
"don't say I bo jio!"

4. Intentional appreciation
"Wa, B, u da best!"

5. Finding opportunities for agreement
"okokokok, you win!"

6. Empathizing and Apologizing
"sorry la, B...don't angry liao leh"

7. Accepting your partner's perspective
"ya lah whatever lah"

8. Making Jokes
"lol."

9. Making kind gestures
"come, limbeh help chu"

10. Turning towards your partner
"what chu want?"

11. Validating your partner's perspective
"oorh. okay. can."

What are the quirky ways of your positive interactions with your partners? I'm sure your take on it will be a lot more interesting than mine!

The difference between happy and unhappy couples is the proportion between positive and negative interactions. This is a very specific ratio that makes love last called the "magic ratio" based on research by Dr. John Gottman and Robert Levenson.

That “magic ratio” is 5:1 during conflict and the outside of conflict is even higher. This means that for every negative interaction during conflict, a stable and happy relationship has five (or more) positive interactions. By focusing on the positives of your relationship such as the good moments from your past and your partner’s admirable traits, you infuse positive energy into your relationship.
