Matrix Key: Relationships - Family
"A happy family is but an earlier heaven." - George Bernard Shaw
They say we can't choose our families, and yet family relationships are among the most important personal connections we will ever have. From birth, we are connected to, and in relationship with, our family. You could even say that without relations, there are no relationships! So why are some of us blessed with close, loving interactive families, while others haven't spoken in years?
In the WholeLife Matrix, we've taken a deeper dive into what makes family relationships work. In order to have a high functioning family unit, the members must prioritize the following key concepts:
- Connection
- Responsibility and Commitment
- Management Structure
- Communication
These concepts seem to come naturally to some families, while others must put more time and attention into them. No matter what, a healthy family must value that family structure, and be able to understand its importance to a well-balanced, fulfilling life. Your family should be a source of love and support, not a drain on your well-being. When you take the time to be aware of how the four key concepts impact your family dynamics, you can better understand and embrace your family's unique relationship to you.
Are you ready to win?
