Working with you definitely helped me get to the bottom line of what I want in a relationship, which is consideration, respect & communication. You helped me choose, in a conscious way, a relationship that helps me grow. Thank you!

I received a lot of feedback from the various people who visited my re-designed website prior to its debut. Some people said it was helpful & informative and easy to navigate, while others said that it was too busy, too confusing and overstuffed with information. Everything that was said sounded valid, and I reacted accordingly -- of course I will change this; yes, I will change that. Why? Because I wanted to please everyone, make them like me and my website, in the hopes that if I did, they would visit often and tell their friends. As I was about to implement everyone's recommendations, I stopped & asked myself -- who am I really supposed to please? If it's everyone who gave me feedback, then I know I'll end up feeling like a rubber band, pulled in every direction. But if my goal is to please myself, then I can pay attention to my own instincts and judgment in deciding how to best provide valuable insight and information to singles looking to find and create a life partner relationship. And in addition to trusting my instincts, I will pray that I continue to get it right so that I'm able to help as many people as I can who come to FocusedCoachingServices.com and spend the time learning how to use the site's (easy!) navigation.

This experience has reinforced the message that I frequently give to relationship-oriented singles -- when making decisions about your relationships, you have to trust your own instincts about who you think would make a good partner for you. There will be plenty of people in your life who love and care about you enough to give you feedback and advice about whomever you're dating. But as I see it, you will never accomplish pleasing everyone else. After all, it's your life, and you can really only please yourself. I know that there are lots of singles who, when it comes to their relationships, are trapped by the need to please those around them. I suggest: that you do listen to what others say, but know that ultimately only you have the power over your own life. . . or website.
