Education and Growth Mindset in Relationships

Updated: Apr 9

Serious Relationships require Growth mindset and it is ingrained in the core virtues of imbibing harmony, understanding and genuine concern. 


There is a stupendous impact of Education when it comes to relationships of life-partner or long-term companionship. 


Education brings forth understanding from the perspective of overall health - mental, physical and deeper conscious level which leads to awareness in the terms of interactions and engagements. 


While education is not just a function of degree of education, it has more to do with considerations 

of pursuing an everlasting relationship. 




Physical abuse is one of the pressing factors that affect serious relationships. Getting incited on casual discussions or differences or resorting to harm is one of the core determinants among couples. 


This not only harms the social fabric but also impacts the community at large. 


Also it impedes growth of both the individuals. At the same time, it is also one of the major causes of separations. 


Owing to lesser emotional quotient, there is very low understanding, empathy and genuine consideration to work for growth of both individuals. 


The dynamics are so biased that when things do not go as per requirement, there is severe abuse and conditioning which curbs the working of females. 


“CONTROL” is one of the core factors that lead to such unimportant imbalances. 


Every relationship passes through the phase of quarrels, verbal fights and lows. 


However resorting to physical abuse is one of the lowest forms of behaviour which leads to long-lasting damage on the mindset of the individuals involved. 




Stats show that this abuse is gender neutral; however it is enormously skewed towards trends where females are physically abused by males. 


It is utmost necessary to reprimand such activities at all cost.




Emotional Immaturity and Lack of Control are some of the major reasons that lead to such scenarios. 


Incidents where an individual is not able to take Rejections, environment where there is no gender equality, higher ego in one of the individual present in relationship 

are some of the major reasons that lead to scenarios where physical harm is pursued. 




Education is one of the major factors that lead to decrease in inequality, having understanding that gender roles or gender biases are superficial. 


Every relationship has stages of different levels of time spent. When there is a higher amount of time spent, it is sure that there will be differences of opinions and point of view. 


Education forges that understanding in a relationship and provides that higher level of bonding. 


Events of humour under the bask of understanding lead to development of genuine and fulfilling bonds. 




Holistic Health is one of the major outputs of a good education in relationships. 


There will be events where there are extremes - in terms of differences of opinion or quarrel. 


Only an educated mind will have that required patience, tolerance, limits of behaviour, decency, mindset to sit together and discuss the differences to solve the same. 


A higher emotional quotient is the primary output of decent education. 


Irrespective of the situation, there will be a mindset to discuss, understand both perspectives and align a set of actions that are providing good outputs to both the individuals. 


With decent education, such incidents of differences are often turned into loving moments. 


When Growth is the primary goal of a relationship, it leads to a set of actions that set the tone of overall well-being in terms of mind, body and soul. 



Most of the individuals get in the loop of enormous drama as well as set of actions that impede growth of each other. 


With increase in the pain, an individual resorts to addiction which leads to long–term harm in one or more areas of life. 


Education provides that understanding that there will be differences, fights and lack of control. Instead of resorting to addictions or behaviours that impede each other’s growth - it is important to let go of neglect and harm for each other. 


 It not only leads to depletion of productivity but also brings down the overall happiness and joy of the entire household. 


Compared to developed countries, individuals of developing nations have higher levels of behaviours that are detrimental for each other in the longer term.


Letting go of Addiction and pursuing good health is one of the core enablers of decent education.
