So far in our Roadmap episodes, we've discussed Desire and Quality Time as two key components for what makes a successful relationship and what happens when either are absent. Today, we're going to discuss the final piece of the Stupid-Simple Relationship Method: Sustainability.
Sustainability dictates our emotional cost in maintaining a relationship. When we say a relationship lacks Sustainability, what we’re saying is that the emotional costs are so high that it’s eroding our Desire to continue the relationship. Without Sustainability, we can’t close the loop and continue feeding Desire. We stop wanting the relationship because “it’s just not worth the effort.”
While within Sustainability, we can find the reasons WHY your relationships end, we can also find also the solutions on HOW to keep your relationships healthy.
