261 What You Should Be Looking for in a Life Partner, Pt. 3— Look for Like NOT Love

The amount of information on how to find a life partner is staggering. There are videos, podcasts, blogs, books—who doesn't have a theory? While some of the information is good, the sheer volume makes it overwhelming. How in the world are we to make sense of it?   Well, in an effort to sift through all the noise, Roy Biancalana, our host, has boiled down our pursuit of intimacy to 5 essential ideas, and they are the focus of this 5-part series.   In part three of the series, you'll hear something radical. We shouldn't be focused on falling in love, but "falling in like." And that's because love is a very mysterious feeling. It's often the result of chemicals in the body or a psychological response to unmet childhood needs. But finding some you genuinely like, someone you deeply enjoy, is a far better way to evaluate a relationship.   Additional Resources Roy may have mentioned on the show:   Roy's Website: https://coachingwithroy.com   Roy's Relationship Fitness Self-Assessment Test: https://coachingwithroy.com/the-relationship-fitness-self-test/   Roy's 4 Books: ·      Quantum Questions: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F4RFZBS3/ ·      Relationship Bootcamp: https://amzn.to/360UsMR ·      Attracting Lasting Love: http://amzn.to/1UnYeYh ·      A Drink with Legs: https://amzn.to/31UBl3K     Roy's Group Coaching Program: https://coachingwithroy.com/group-coaching/   Roy's Complimentary 45-min.

We're called to look for the barriers within ourselves, because that is far more important than focusing on who we'd like to meet and how we might meet them.   Additional Resources Roy may have mentioned on the show:   Roy's Website: https://coachingwithroy.com   Roy's Relationship Fitness Self-Assessment Test: https://coachingwithroy.com/the-relationship-fitness-self-test/   Roy's 4 Books: ·      Quantum Questions: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F4RFZBS3/ ·      Relationship Bootcamp: https://amzn.to/360UsMR ·      Attracting Lasting Love: http://amzn.to/1UnYeYh ·      A Drink with Legs: https://amzn.to/31UBl3K     Roy's Group Coaching Program: https://coachingwithroy.com/group-coaching/   Roy's Complimentary 45-min.

When it's all said and done, happiness and freedom is what we all ultimately want. But what path should we follow? There are many to choose from. Is it meaningful relationships, lasting intimacy, financial security, health, family, fame or religion? Or is it something else?   In the previous episode, Roy explained that the best path to happiness and freedom must be (1) in your control, (2) available now and (3) something that makes sense to everyone.   And none of the most popular paths to happiness—relationships, intimacy, money, health, family, fame, religion, or even a combination of them!—meet that criteria.   In this episode, Roy begins exploring "The 5-Fold Path to Happiness & Freedom," and he starts with the first step, which is to shift from resistance to acceptance.   You will learn: ·      What resistance actually means; ·      The most common ways we resist reality in life and relationship; ·      Why resisting will steal your happiness and freedom; ·      Some baby-step suggestions on how to shift from resistance to acceptance; ·      And much, much more.   There really isn't a more important topic than this one, so don't miss this episode and series.   Additional Resources Roy may have mentioned on the show:   Roy's Website: https://coachingwithroy.com   Roy's Relationship Fitness Self-Assessment Test: https://coachingwithroy.com/the-relationship-fitness-self-test/   Roy's 4 Books: ·      Quantum Questions: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F4RFZBS3/ ·      Relationship Bootcamp: https://amzn.to/360UsMR ·      Attracting Lasting Love: http://amzn.to/1UnYeYh ·      A Drink with Legs: https://amzn.to/31UBl3K     Roy's Group Coaching Program: https://coachingwithroy.com/group-coaching/   Roy's Complimentary 45-min.
