"If I accept the fact that my relationships are here to make me conscious, instead of happy, then my relationships become a wonderful self mastery tool that keeps realigning me with my higher purpose for living."– Eckhart TolleThis is one of my favourite quotes, although it isn’t necessarily in line with how most people view relationships. We tend to be conditioned with an idea about meeting ‘the one’ and living happily ever after. But, one look at divorce rates shows that this doesn’t seem to tally.Long-term relationships can be challenging, and I would suggest this is no bad thing. Few people can trigger us as well as our partners, and this opens up a huge opportunity for growth, as we discuss in this episode. We don’t suggest everyone needs to approach relationships in the way that we do, but perhaps some people may benefit from a slight change in perspective.Champion Thinking: How To Find Success Without Losing Yourself - is now on general release. Drawing on some of my favourite interviews over the last five years, I want to challenge our ideas about 'success', and where peace, joy and fulfilment are truly to be found. The recognition that we are not our thoughts, we are aware of our thoughts is fundamental. I also explore emotional intelligence, burnout, acceptance, flow and non-duality.'This book captures the magic of being in flow . . .
