The School of Greatness

NOTE

Prioritize Understanding Over Chemistry

Establishing a strong foundation in a relationship requires prioritizing personal values and compatibility over chemical attraction. Engaging emotionally or sexually too early can create an addictive bond that blinds individuals to fundamental differences in values, visions, and lifestyles. It is crucial to take the time to genuinely understand the other person, including their beliefs and future aspirations, before committing. If fundamental incompatibilities are identified, such as differing views on marriage or parenthood, acceptance of each other's true selves is essential for a healthy relationship. Acceptance must be reciprocal; both partners should embrace each other as they are.
