THE GEAR WHEELS THAT DRIVE ALL RELATIONSHIPS

Book excerpt: The Gear Wheels That Drive All Relationships “The Gear Wheels that drive all our relationships” by Naresh Gathani is a book on the evolutionary cycles of all relationships. The evolution of our relationships is very structured and the book simplifies all my original concepts that I have introduced for the first time . Relationships define our existence . Some relationships are with human beings , other relationships are with animals , pets and nature. There are partly in-animate relationships with our careers , our wealth , our hobbies , our cars etc . But all relationships are driven by the same eleven gear wheels . The outcome and benefits of these relationships depend on our understanding of the gear wheels that drive the evolution of relationships and more importantly to understand what powers the evolutionary cycles . The first and the most important relationship is with ourselves , and this relationship is also driven by the same gear wheels as all the other relationships . Actually , this first relationship is totally central to all our other relationships , whether it is with another human being, with a pet or with our career . Failure to understand this will compromise the outcomes of all our other relationships . The major difference between the relationship with ourselves is that we do not pursue this relationship but it is given to us at birth . The beginnings of this relationship manifest in stages and this relationship evolves from birth and never stops evolving. All our other relationships come about because we actively or passively pursue interactions . The other major difference is that the relationship with ourselves is an obligatory one , we don’t get to choose . This book is about understanding the eleven gear wheels that drive all relationships and understanding the significance of the power source that drives the gear wheels . In many ways, a relationship is like a finely manufactured time piece . The precision of the gear wheels determine the function. The fluent interaction between the gear wheels will determine its fitness for purpose . The power source will determine the benefits it can bestow upon us . Naresh hopes that readers of all ages and backgrounds will enjoy reading this book on the gear wheels that drive all our relationships.
