My acronym to improve any relationshipđź’—
You're listening to the Love Tidbits Podcast, where you'll discover a small, tasty, delightful, bite-sized tidbit of love ~ I'm your host, LeAnn Austin
Hey y'all, welcome to Love Tidbits, episode #35: Improve Any Relationship
Y'all know I'm passionate about the mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationship, and I love acronyms. So, I created an acronym to increase the love you feel for your daughter-in-law, mother-in-law, or really anybody. I'll be using the daughter-in-law examples today. But you can apply this to any relationship you like.
Basically relationships are simply our thoughts about the other person. You might have a daughter-in-law you love dearly and someone else might not like her at all. Why? Well, your daughter-in-law hasn't changed. The other person has a different experience of your daughter-in-law because the other person thinks different thoughts about her. That person's relationship with your daughter-in-law depends on that person's thoughts about her. So again, your relationship with anyone depends on your thoughts about them.
So, if you want to improve your relationship with anyone, I want you to think daughter-in-law, which is abbreviated D I L.
The D in my daughter-in-law acronym stands for Discover. Discover, find out, learn about, get curious about the other person.
For example, one of my daughters-in-law likes Cheerios for breakfast, the other one hates tomatoes and okra. They both have an eye for beautiful things, and they love their dogs, and they love my sons. If there is a relationship you want to improve, discover everything you can about that person.
The I in our daughter-in-law acronym stands for Intuition. Intuition is defined as the ability to understand something immediately, without the need for conscious reasoning. It's instinctive. It's that feeling in your gut.
What's your intuition telling you about the other person? Listen to it. Sometimes I'll get the intuition to text my daughters-in-law, or to say something, or do something. And I never regret listening to my intuition.
And lastly, the L is for Love. Love, I love the question, What would love do? If you were feeling love, what would you do? Sometimes that's saying no, sometimes love is setting boundaries, and love is always telling the truth.
Well, that's it. If you want to improve your relationship with your daughter-in-law, or anyone, remember the acronym I created D I L ~ Discover Intuition Love ~ Hmmm, something to think about.
Have a good one y'all. And here's to daughter-in-laws, relationships, and love. If you're enjoying this podcast, please share and leave a review to help others hear tidbits of love.
