Summary
There has always been a focus on the future that we each want to create. As a couple this can be in the form of setting goals or establishing your vision statement. This is a great thing because you can't get anywhere if you don't know where you want to go. But sometimes this can leave you feeling disappointed that you are "not there yet" or be discouraged when you feel you are not making as much progress as you would like.
In this solo episode with Aaron you will hear how there is a gap that gets created from this thinking, which can cause you to feel more disappointed about the relationship, when really you just need to change a particular focus. You will hear how you can close the gap between where you want to be and where you are now, so that you are not left feeling discouraged about your current relationship or your partner. You will easily gain appreciation and gratitude by making this one small shift.

| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the Empowered Couples podcast. |
| 0:02.6 | I am one of your host, Aaron Freeman, and I'll be your only host today. |
| 0:06.1 | So for those of you that have been listening for a while, you know that Jocelyn and I do these episodes together. |
| 0:12.2 | But every once in a while, there's a particular topic that we each are passionate or just desire to talk about on our own. |
| 0:19.7 | So that's this episode. And it's going to be about closing the gap between where you are now |
| 0:24.5 | and where you want to be without feeling disappointed. |
| 0:28.4 | Now this comes from a conversation I had with a friend of mine here this past week |
| 0:32.8 | and it was something I really wanted to talk to you all about. |
| 0:36.7 | You know, because the idea, before I tell you the |
| 0:39.0 | story that he was sharing with me, the idea is, you know, whether it is looking into the future, |
| 0:45.9 | setting your goals, you know, if you've listened to us, you've heard about having a couple's |
| 0:50.1 | vision statement. So whether it's your vision for the future it's what you're creating together |
| 0:54.8 | and there's really been this conditioning right about us all having this future that we're creating |
| 1:01.4 | and then we think about it all the time some of us call that like manifesting you visualize |
| 1:07.2 | and that's how things become a reality he gave me a different way to think about this so |
| 1:13.4 | think for yourself you know what is the goal what is the vision what's the future that you are |
| 1:18.6 | creating with your partner and think about this if we're always thinking about that future |
| 1:24.5 | then all of a sudden it becomes a comparison to where we are now versus that |
| 1:33.2 | where you want to be or what you like to gain or you could say what you like to create together |
| 1:39.1 | right so all of a sudden there creates this gap and that's exactly what this title is about |
| 1:43.8 | closing that gap. |
| 1:45.2 | The gap between where you'd like to be as a couple or even as an individual, but where you are now. |
