How Can I Get Better Today?
The answer – Add BECAUSE…
The next time you tell/text your significant other, child, parent, or friend you love them, add
BECAUSE to the statement. I love you because… and fill in the rest of the sentence. We tell
our wife/husband (kids, etc) that we love them all the time. It becomes a habit and one that we
take for granted most times. When you add because you are being intentional about why you
love that person and making it more meaningful to that person. You will brighten their day!
Love is arguably the most powerful emotion and experience in life. Love transcends all things. It
breaks barriers and repairs broken relationships. But love does not just happen. It’s not magic
and does not happen without effort. Love requires great effort. Love is a game changer and
when you add BECAUSE you will be changing the game for your significant other.
Little things make big differences! Trust me on this one, add because and see if it doesnt
change the game for you. Your significant other will respond in great ways because you will
have made an intentional effort to tell them something great about themselves.
Stephanie, I love you BECAUSE you have such a big heart and care deeply for our family!
PS. Every time you do it, you must come up with another reason. You can’t use the same
BECAUSE all the time, lol.
