Hey, ALG. Thanks for doing this experiment with us.

I've done step one on both areas I want to work on.

My question is when dealing with intentions for a relationship, I would assume you don't intend to have the other person do something specific. That would be trying to control them? So in exercise two when you you come up with the positive idea or thought, how would it be worded? Something like, "my relationship is full of trust, openness and connection." Like that?

In the visualization I could picture my boyfriend doing the things I hope he will do? In the same way you talked about changing the movie of what your boss does? Is that not intending for someone else to change?

Just confused, but I am on board!
