What is something your other person would really, really love? Common sense tells us that we may not be able to fulfill every one of their dreams due to time or budget constraints. But how much of your response to this question has become automatic? Too quick to say no.
What if you resolved to do your best to honor it? What might happen if the one thing your other person said you'd never be able to do for them was the next thing you did?
Dream and desires come in all shapes & sizes - think lavishly while taking careful note of each one. Listen between the lines to discover what they really want or need, remember special things that are unique to your other person, give when it would be a lot more convenient to wait, daydream about opportunities so often that planning surprises becomes second nature.
Today's Challenge: Ask yourself what your other person would want if it was obtainable. Commit this to thoughtful effort and start mapping out a plan for meeting some (if not all) of their desires, to whatever level you possibly can.
When complete: 1. What made you resistant to fulfilling your other person's desires in the past? 2. How would it change your relationship if they knew their dreams & desires were a priority to you? 3. What desires are you attempting to meet?
