The Importance of Effort in Relationships

Relationships require intentional effort and creativity, much like the attention given to work or hobbies.

This mindset results in taking relationships for granted and failing to invest the necessary emotional energy. To counteract this, prioritizing attention and care in relationships is crucial for sustaining and enhancing connection over time.
