<p>We Are More Attractive When We Know They Are All THE ONE!</p>
<p>The most perfect relationship is the one that supports you in fulfilling your destiny &#8211; the one that empowers you to be everything you are meant to be in this world and beyond.</p>
<p>For example, in a room full of people, you have attracted each person for their ability to demonstrate to you what you want, and what you don&#8217;t want.</p>
<p>In that way, every person &#8216;in the room&#8217; is &#8230; &#8216;THE ONE&#8217;.</p>
<p>Take out a piece of paper and write something you want in a business or personal relationship that would be a perfect fit for you. Write it down now and then go out into your life today and notice what you attract.</p>
<p>For example, one of our perfect customers mentioned that she went to the grocery store and she saw a couple picking out vegetables. She was intrigued, but she didn&#8217;t know exactly why.</p>
<p>I asked, her, &#8220;What was it about this particular couple that &#8216;grabbed her attention?&#8221;</p>
<p>Upon reflection, she said, &#8220;They looked like they were together and mutually supporting each other.</p>
<p>I asked her if she had written those qualities on her plan for attracting her perfect mate?</p>
<p>&#8220;No&#8221;, she replied.</p>
<p>For her, the couple at the grocery store represented &#8220;THE ONE&#8221; because they clearly demonstrated to her a quality that she wanted in her relationships. By staying awake and alert to what is showing up around you, you will be more able to refine, focus on and attract the relationships you need for the fulfillment of what you say you want.</p>
<p>&#8220;Forget looking for &#8220;the one&#8221; &#8211; they are all &#8220;the one&#8221; &#8211; a perfect love or a sign of land.&#8221; &#8211; Jan Stringer &#8211; Heart Beats</p>
<p>Now that&#8217;s attractive!</p>
<p>Each of Alan Hickman&#8217;s articles expresses a strategy, plan, or insight for getting better results in your life and your business. However, the most effective way to get results, and start making more money is to take a step-by-step approach.</p>

<p>Managing conflict involves more than just resolving the disagreement. If you fail to address the emotional and psychological needs of those involved, you may find the conflict returning and/or severe damage to the relationship may occur.</p>
<p>Depending on the severity of the conflict and how it was handled at each step of the resolution process, it may be impossible to go back to the point in the relationship that you were in before the disagreement. The key to reducing this possibility is to identify and address conflicting issues as early as possible. The longer an issue remains unresolved, the more damage it can cause. Whenever possible, apply one or more of the following strategies to help protect and salvage the relationship(s) between you and your coworkers, supervisor and customers. The following are key steps for saving a relationship once conflict occurs:</p>
<p>Reaffirm the value of the relationship. You cannot assume that others feel the same as you or understand your intent unless you communicate it. Tell them how much you value your relationship. This is especially important when dealing with customers.</p>
<p>Demonstrate commitment. You must verbalize and demonstrate your desire to continue or strengthen your relationship. The way to do this with customers is through service recovery or working collectively with the customer to rebuild trust and the relationship.</p>
<p>Be realistic. Because of behavioral styles, it is difficult for some people to &#8220;forgive and forget.&#8221; You have to systematically help restore their trust. It can take a while to accomplish this, but the effort is well worth it.</p>
<p>Remain flexible. A solid relationship involves the ability to give and take. It is especially crucial that you and the other people involved make concessions following conflict.</p>
<p>Keep communication open. One of the biggest causes of conflict and destroyed relationships is poor communication.</p>
<p>Gain commitment. You cannot do it all by yourself. Get a commitment to work toward reconciliation from any other person(s) involved in the conflict.</p>
<p>Monitor progress. Do not assume because the conflict was resolved that it will remain that way. Deep seated issues often resurface, especially when commitment was not obtained.</p>
