Three no cost things you can give to improve your relationships.

Improving your relationship with your partner,
your family, your friends, your coworkers
and people you interact with on a daily basis
gets rid of mental and emotional clutter.

Three things you can start giving today: 
1.  Give someone the benefit of the doubt.
      Assume that everyone is just trying to do the best they can.
      No one and nothing is against you.
2.  Give someone your full attention.
      Listen without considering your next comment.
      Turn off your phone during the meal.
      Don’t offer advice, a solution or one up with a story of your own.
3.  Give up the need to be right.
      Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy?
      A day, a week, a year from now; how important will having been ‘right’ be?

And if those three aren’t enough,
Give someone a compliment.
Give someone else the close parking spot.
Give a little more than someone is expecting.
Give someone five minutes of your assistance to make their job easier.
Give thanks.  (You really do have a pretty amazing life)

Consider what you would most like to receive from others:
Try giving that………
