Bryan and I have very different personality types. He is very black and white and I see gray, he does not mix business and pleasure and I think there should be a balance of the two in any working relationship. If someone owes him money, he typically is not concerned about their personal situation and I typically am. We are just very different in our approach; however there is a great benefit to how we complement each other.
Bryan is the ultimate negotiator and I would say I am okay but it depends on the situation. I have a tendency to allow my heart to get in the way of my decisions which can be very beneficial at times and damaging at others. I recently had a situation where I needed the ultimate negotiation skills because my heart was very much engaged. So I referred to Bryan and he was able to provide some coaching that enabled a win/win solution. Today I honored my husband by referring to his intellectual skills and our differences. It was quite helpful and I felt honored that he has such an ability to see black and white because although I do not prefer that approach there are times when it truly is needed.
Wives of the world in what ways do you or can you honor your husband's skills? Does he know what aspects of his personality that is different than yours are of true value to you and your family? How can you honor his differences and skills today? Please share your stories with us; we would love to hear from you.
Blessings,
Rochelle
