Is compromise all to a fulfilled life?

When husband and wife or close friends are both strong willed, there will be problems, reaching a compromise and taking decisions will be tough in the family. It is a fact that reaching compromise in a marriage is one stumbling block that most women face in their marriages and has become a threat to the stability of the marriage and home front.

To be able to make it in life, lots and lots of compromise is needed for life to be worthwhile. In life there are many occasions where we have to take decisive decisions. One of the main things, that creep into our mind while taking a decision is whether we are compromising or not. Most of the time, because of how complex we are, we forget what a compromise is or all about. Compromise happens when we set standards for ourselves and we fail to meet those standards. Now what if the standards we set for ourselves are too high? Now there is a point of view that nothing is out of reach. Now even if it’s true is it practical in this world. Is it viable for one to stick to a particular path, no matter what, even though there is another path which is more reachable? Even if nothing is impossible should one spend way too much time than normal to get there?

Life is never perfect and is far from perfect! We might have something planned and it comes crashing down on us and we are forced to make new plans. We might not all be as lucky as some people will have their plans rolled out the way they have expected it to be executed but for those of us whose plans do fail we have no option than to compromise to a very great extent to make things work for us. One can never be too sure that our plans are going to work out right for us, so the best way to be able to move ahead in case of any eventualities in life is to compromise and be prepared for any situation without letting any failures bring you down.

Compromise is something we all eventually have to discover as one of the pillars of sustaining life.  Compromise involves two parties and one giving up something they want for the benefit of another, but nowadays you find out that compromise is being neglected especially by many because they feel if they compromise they are giving up their right and this starts to be the beginning of crisis in whatever situation they find themselves.

Compromise is not the easiest thing in the world to do. For those who are married well, compromise sounds pretty on paper but it is one that you must be willing to adopt and make use of in your life for things to go on smoothly.

How do you achieve a compromise without resentment? First and foremost, understand that agreeing to disagree is sometimes an option – but if you do agree to disagree – don’t hang onto any anger or resentment.

We have all heard a million times and more that marriage or any other relationship is about give and take. In a relationship, it is not always possible for either persons or parties to have their way. Therefore, sometimes one person gives and the other takes. Of course this works much better if both people get to experience both the giving and the taking.

Compromise is not about giving up but about doing things in another different way and format to see to the possibility of a better outcome. Compromise has become a very necessary in most of our dealings in life. It is important to realize that without compromise arguments could flare up easily and feelings of resentment could set in thereby bringing a wedge between whoever it is we have failed to reach a compromise with. Compromise is like finding a common ground where you have to have a balance in your life to be able to forge ahead in life.

Compromise is a game of life; we all have to do it at different stages in our lives. One can never live alone in a society, so when you have to live a with others there has to be a certain amount of give and take, like they say live is lived for a while, so true that one has to make the best of it. Adjustment and compromise in life is the same for everybody as long as it is things will be balanced up. So one can safely say that life is one big compromise for all! For many, the question is compromise the key still remains an illusion.
