Hello,
I'm Aaron Hubach.
In this short audio,
I'm going to share with you a quote I saw that resonated with me and holds very true as you go through life.
Being older and having gone through many situations in life,
I agree and want to talk through three simple rules to live by.
The first rule is that love needs action.
Think about the relationships in your life and think about the love that you've experienced or the love that you want to experience.
Words can come easy,
But it's all about the action that people take that shows they care about you.
In your relationships,
Do you feel like things are one-sided?
Is the care and love you show being reciprocated?
This rule basically comes down to actions speak louder than words.
I can recall many times that people that actually cared for me showed me by the actions that they took.
In the relationships that were more tarnished,
Those people spoke more than they actually did.
The same goes for myself.
At times when I was not as caring,
I didn't take actions to show that I cared.
Thinking of many situations that I have been in,
It's about the actions that I've experienced and less about the words.
The second rule is trust needs proof.
Think now about times when someone broke your trust or when you broke someone's trust.
Was that trust earned in the first place?
Trust needs to be earned and to earn trust,
You need to show some action or proof,
If you will,
That you can be someone that is trustworthy or someone else is trustworthy.
This needs to be consistent and not just a one-time proof of action.
Think of someone you know that is trustworthy and what characteristics do they have?
It's probably along the lines of having consistent actions or proof that they carry out that makes you trust them.
Watch your own and others actions and if they're consistently proving that they are trustworthy.
The third rule is sorry needs change.
Again,
Think of any situations in your life where someone has been in the wrong or even yourself and they or yourself did not mean to do this certain action.
There's apologies and then we all move forward.
Those situations then need some kind of change if there is a promise that it will never happen again.
Do you or the other person acknowledge the wrongdoing and is there an attempt to correct that behavior?
If you keep experiencing sorry,
It will never happen again and it continues to happen again,
There's really no change happening.
Think about these three simple rules,
Use journaling,
Take account of situations you have in your life right now and if those rules are being followed by yourself or from your relationships.
Love needs action or else it is not love.
Trust needs proof or there is no trustworthiness and sorry needs change or else the apology is meaningless.
