Are you proud of your partner?

Being proud of your partner is important.

When you are not proud of your partner it creates a negative impact in your personal life:

if you are not proud of them, how can you be proud of yourself for being with them?

It is important to know the difference between not having a partner who is pride-worthy OR being stuck in a cycle where you make your partner responsible for all the bad things that happen in your life.

More often than not it is us who are choosing to see the dark rather than the light.

It can be very difficult to spot the difference between these two cases.
When you make your partner responsible for your suffering you are doing it from a very unconscious place and that can seem real. (If you are stuck in this pattern I can help with that, let me know!)

Feeling proud of your partner comes naturally, but expressing that to the world makes the pride exponentially higher.

Every time I express how proud I am of my partner for who they are, it creates a loop of greatness that feeds our souls for days:

- He feels seen & excited because he can see what I reflected
- and he also feels proud of me for being who I am.
- We both feel extremely grateful to have each other,
- and we are both more likely to share positive feedback with each other.

It is really good to take that as a practice that you consciously do.
The benefits are massive and the effort is really low. It might seem a bit hard at the beginning if you are not used to it, but it’s worth it to work past it.

Practicing making compliments should be something we do with all people we know because it creates a good gratitude practice and it makes others aware of their gifts.

After all, we all work better from praise than pressure.
