In addition, I visualized my heart feeling happy and agreeing with myself to accept that no matter how it may happen, I will feel content and secure - I just have to trust myself and God (the universe, the Light etc).
other 180's in connection with control:
- never ask where he is, what he is doing - don't offer him more information than he needs about me - do not tell him what to do or how to do it (unless he asks) - listen to what he says and feedback to him directly (proper listening skills) - be honest about where I stand (assertive) AND DO NOT shove it down his throat, become defensive, persuasive or argumentative -if he got defensive, I questioned how I was delivering my message and tried in a different way and apologized for my delivery. - I stopped complimenting him (could be interpreted as a pursuing behavior). A coincidence maybe but I noticed he started to state things he noticed changed about me (haircut, new eyeshadow, little things).
Ok - If I think of any others, I'll let y'all know.
