Transforming Thought Habits: Creating Peace in Relationships and Life

As humans, we all have specific thoughts that don't bring the desired results. These thoughts can make our lives more difficult and cause hardships in our relationships. 

You may not have chosen them. You may have absorbed them when you were a child, and you have carried them during your life. 

But the good news is that these thoughts can be changed. 

In this episode, Robert interviews Sharla to uncover their romantic relationship's different transformations, thanks to changes in their thought patterns. 

Sharla explains how the tools she got from neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) allowed her to change her rigid thinking patterns and understand that different people perceive different things. When she accepted this radical fact, she realized there was no need to convince someone she was right. 

We all have our preferences, but when we decide to grow and stop blaming others for our circumstances, we internalize that diverse perceptions are normal and natural rather than threatening. Embracing this will bring more peace and zen to your relationships. 


Robert and Sharla invite you to challenge your existing thought patterns and consider whether a shift in thinking may bring more peace in your life. And remember, it's the small and simple things we do every day that creates strong relationships.


  "Either we can let our old software keep running our life and our emotions on autopilot the way we have since we were a small child and we first learned them, or we can take charge, change our software, create a new course, and navigate our life and our relationships." ~ Robert Snow


"I choose to believe that we tend to attract and marry the person that mirrors exactly what we need in this life." ~ Sharla Snow
