100 Hours
Rumor states, that when you spend 100 hours in a year in any discipline, you are better than 95% of the world in that discipline.
How does this play into personal and interpersonal relationships? If you commit 100 hours to your relationship a year, 18 minutes a day to give your full undivided attention to the person you love, does this mean your relationship will inherently be better than 95%?
Maybe. But it could also mean that a simple 20 minutes a day of someone’s full attention, no cell phone, no TV, no distractions, could be the answer to most of our relationship problems.
We are often so focused on other things. Last night while boyfriend and I watched a movie, we also had our phones on us, leaving zero room for conversation. Also not leaving much room for us to really watch the movie. We were so focused on our own things, that for the entirety of the day we forgot to focus on each other.
So what did I do today? After realizing that our time was distracted?
We decided to go for a 45 minute walk today. We left them at home, it was just us, the dogs, and our conversation. We talked about business, our relationship, when I should invite his mom to the salon, things that we missed in the movie we sort of watched last night.
