When you need to make a decision about your relationship or want to express something to your partner, take a beat before doing so.
While you shouldn’t have to overthink your relationship, you do want to think before you speak in order to maintain a peaceful relationship.
Avoid wearing rose-colored glasses
Sometimes, when we lead with our hearts more than our heads, we make so many decisions based on our feelings and, whether we realize it or not, wear a pair of rose-colored glasses.
The importance of leading with both your head and heart means that you can recognize the beauty in certain situations and the red flags in others.
Remember to stay on the alert and not brush off any red flags whenever they appear.
Utilize self-reflection
The best way to start using your head and heart is to make sure you know yourself on a deeper level.
Be honest with yourself and practice self-reflection. For instance, reflect on some of your past relationships, habits, and relationship patterns.
For instance, when entering a new relationship that isn’t what you had hoped it would be, ask yourself, “Am I with this person because I genuinely enjoy them or because I don’t want to be alone?”
Seek help from others
