Great awareness and so natural for us to want others to do things our way and be different.
Notice your thoughts, “My plan is perfect or my plan is better than his.” Totally makes sense that you’d feel frustrated, and you are “shoulding” on yourself and others.
Take some time to question your thought. Is your plan really perfect or better? Is there any part of his plan that would be okay too?
Also think about, what if there was nothing to “fix”. What if there are lots of ways to do this rather than just your way?
Let the frustration be there and feel it, AND start wiggling your thoughts. How could you get curious about the way your husband would like to do this? How could you show up with love and compassion for you and for him?
