One of the 5 P’s of Life is “Personal Relationships” – your relationship with others, including your spouse, significant other, parents, other family members, and friends.

To build and strengthen these relationships it’s important to dedicate time to them – no matter how busy life becomes for you.

Below are personal relationship tips we tweeted last month on Twitter. Please share these tips with your loved ones.

When conflict arises in your relationship, view it as an opportunity to grow by being open to solving the situation and learning more about your spouse. 

Most people wouldn’t even ask for your help if you were still working – it’s up to you to manage their expectation by learning to say “no” in retirement. 

If your aging parent has lost their “spark,” explore if they have symptoms of depression or if it’s a result from their medications. 

When your parents and your spouse clash, don’t ignore it – establish boundaries with your parents in order to validate your loyalty to your spouse.
