Is there a relationship between success and happy relationship? Does love motivate us to succeed?

Hi!

I think it's like this: when both partners are happy together, they inspire each other to be the best. As an example, my fiance and I are very supportive of each other in whatever endeavors we pursue. When he joins in some competitions, I cheer him on, and I guess that's a factor that's why he does his best. When I try to do things I'm adamant to do, he does the same, and it inspires me to try hard.

I think the bottomline is how we inspire the people we love. If we inspire each other, we give our best, and when we give our best there is a big chance we succeed.

Yes. very right.

Uh, yeah, but situations change. The key is always communication. The first 5 years of my relationship, I was a young, rich, high-powered executive. I was in the mortgage industry and when it crashed last year, I was devastated. I went from working 14 hours a day and loving it to being at home and looking for a job that was going to be fulfilling. All my live-in boyfriend saw was that I was always home. He didn't know how to console me because times were always good before. It's put a strain on our relationship and I've had to explain to him that like relationships, individually, our lives go through changes. How we deal with those changes will determine if we will be successful in our relationship. It's an uphill battle and we work a lot harder on our relationship now, then we have in the last 5 years.
