The power of love

Note: This is a guest post by Amr Abbas.

We all know that love is one of the strongest feelings that we could encounter in life, if not the strongest of them all. But not all of us know how to use that love. I'm not telling you that you should use your love for any reason, but I'm telling you that you could utilize the strong feeling you have for someone to become a better person.

Most of people tend to overlook the things that they could do when they are in love and instead, they go ahead and begin to lay low, start being less active when it comes to their jobs and careers and they gradually start ending the beautiful relationship they have with their significant other by putting too much effort into the romance rather than the touched things. There is a special fire that love gives you that makes you able to do more just because you are in love. It makes you wake up the next day no matter how unsuccessful the day before was so you can work today and reach the success that you need. It's one of the best tools of motivation.

The energy love can provide you with

There are many things your love could fire you up for:

1-Survival: Have you ever had a job that you dislike? Well, usually, when one is going through that feeling, they don't last long in their job. They continuously make reckless mistakes until they lose the job in any way. Now, if you have someone that you care for and you need that job to keep you alive for a while then you will find yourself working harder no matter how much you dislike the job until a different opportunity comes to you. (see also When should i quit my job)
2-More planning: Most of people who have nothing to lose will not plan ahead before they make any decision. However, when you have someone that you care for or when you have a relationship that you cherish, you know that you need to put more effort into it. You begin to plan or else you will put yourself and so the relationship in risk. When love is fresh and new, people tend to stay away from trouble that would affect their love in any possible way. (see also How to have hope for the future)
3-Cheerfulness: Now, there are people who tend to dramatize situations and aggravate them in a way that would make the slightest problem look like one without a solution. That's something that you would avoid when you are in love because you know that you will affect your partner and the whole relationship in turn by your negative feelings. You tend to be more cheerful and so when you smile at life, it smiles back upon you.

How to maintain a healthy relationship

Now, you could either go that way or you could pretend that your relationship and your love are vain and by that you would be ruining your relationship from the stem. It's all relative because when you do something good, you get something good in return. Like Gandhi said, "Your beliefs become your thoughts. Your thoughts become your words. Your words become your actions. Your actions become your habits. Your habits become your values. Your values become your destiny."

So, you should know that whichever the way you choose for your life to go is the path you will be taking towards your destiny. Most of people tend to ignore those facts that can make their lives a lot easier and so you meet a lot of divorces and breakups in your life. If you were planning ahead, you wouldn't be going through that. (see also Why are so many people getting divorced)

Fix the flaws in your relationship

Now that you have read this, you should find the little flaws in your relationship that
could be fixed because everything in life can be fixed and if you couldn't do it at the right time, then you know how to deal with the next relationship you will have because your love will be fresh. One more thing you should keep in consideration is that you generate feelings as you go.

For example, some people might say that their love is fading for this reason or that. Of course, you can make your love fade by putting too much effort into it and in return you would receive nothing whether it's because of your partner's capability of containing that feeling or because you are simply rushing it all. (see also Building a healthy relationship)

When you go through that then most likely you are trying too hard to rush the process. Many people forget that everything perishes in time, even feelings. So, the more time you take being in love and taking things slowly and smoothly, the more your relationship will surely last.
