"Next steps" in the context of relationships mean figuring out what to do after a conflict or disagreement.

It's similar to deciding where to go next on a map.

Each step is important because it helps you move forward and find solutions.

By talking calmly, actively listening to each other, and finding compromise you can create a plan to enhance your relationship outcomes.

“Next steps” are about finding a positive pathway forward through and beyond a tough situation.

Your Toolbox 1

So there is a lot of stuff happening in your life and it might be very frustrating making sense of it all.

Sometimes, taking a fresh look around can give you a bit of breathing space.

The big question to ask is; What is important to you right now?

Then write down a short list of things that pop into your head.

Read them back to yourself and try to number them from most important till least important.

Now you have something to focus on.

How to get it all done

Start day with small wins:

Never hit snooze

One step at a time: Journal prompts

Before you go to bed tonight, jot down what you did today. Be honest with yourself about how you spent your time.

In what ways do you trick yourself into thinking you’re productive when you’re really just being busy?

BigJake's Thoughts

A lot of us sometimes get stuck as we consider what to do now.

The situation is real and the pressure is turned up emotionally and physically as we consider the various options.

This is the time to try to step back a bit so you can change your view or perspective of the situation.

Then have a friend of someone that you trust help you plan some solutions that could work for you.

Usually its a series of small steps that we have to take to get closer to our goal or objective.

Some steps might feel very challenging while others seem more insignificant, but each step gets you closer to a goal.

*The driver of this process is our willingness to accept the inevitable changes that will need to be considered or implemented. *

That is the hard part.

Once we move along the step- by -step process it does feel a bit easier.
