Pink Dress with Blue Spots
You’d be amazed how often brides find it easier to know what they don’t want. For instance they don’t want to be stressed, tired or anxious about their day. Knowing what you don’t want can be useful, it is more productive to spend a little time stating what you want for your wedding in the positive.
For example:
‘I don’t want a pink dress with blue spots’, is less useful than ‘I want special dress that flatters my figure and skin tone’. The listener understands you better and can connect with your ideas and dreams for your day in this way.
The same applies to when you have a member of your wedding party who is causing, perhaps, a little tension. You can easily get caught up in the “don’t want” argument. This usually leads to more frustration.
So here are some tips to know what you want and how to communicate your thoughts and ideas simply. You will be delightfully surprised by how easy it is to get others to listen, understand and accept your decisions about your special day.
Firstly, spend some time day dreaming about your wedding, see it in full Technicolor glory and hear all the fun and excitement in Dolby surround sound. The more you day dream in this way, the clearer you will become about what you want and can then stay true to your dream day.
Accept all opinions as useful, thank the giver for their advice and with a smile, be clear and say you have made your decision and are really happy with it and move the conversation on, or let them know you will think about it. Either way you placing less importance on their ideas and they will get the message.
Shift your focus back to what you want. Do you want to enjoy every moment, feel more in love than ever before, sparkle with happiness – yes, then focus on that and you will feel so amazing on the inside and glowing on the outside.
Have a blissful day.
