Part 7 - Unsuccessful vs. Successful Single
I’ve used the phrase “successful single” many times in here. You may be wondering what exactly makes someone a successful single. Let's look at the difference between an unsuccessful single and a successful single.
How to be an unsuccessful single:
-
See being single as a condition that needs to be cured.
-
Be on a constant lookout for that one person that is going to make everything right.
-
Put off living your life until you meet someone.
-
Believe that no matter what you do, you will wind up hurt.
-
Resign yourself to being alone and miserable the rest of your life.
-
Take on a victim mentality and there is nothing you can do about your life.
-
Believe the lie that "all the good ones are taken."
How to be a successful single:
-
Don't put your life on hold waiting for a relationship to happen.
-
Find your life's vision and purpose and live it while you are single.
-
One of the best ways to find your life partner is to be a happy, successful single person living the life that you really want.
-
Know what types of people are bad for you and avoid them.
-
Don't just wait for someone to come knocking at your door. It can be a long wait. Get out into social situations.
-
Seek out healthy choices in potential partners.
-
Always keep in mind that it only takes one.
-
Create an attractive and compelling life that someone would be eager to be a part of.
-
In other words, view being single not as a condition to be cured, but as an opportunity to be explored and lived out to its fullest.[2]
Remember, if you can't stand to be with
you, how will anyone else? If you want to be a
successful single, you have to feel complete on your own.
You'll know that you are starting to become a successful single when your actions change.
