They’re the key to the whole concept, actually.

It’s not just the big things that you need to take care of and maintain to have a successful relationship. In fact, it’s the small things that contribute to building a strong foundation for all those essential things you need.

If you want healthy communication, for example, then you need to start by being open and honest about simple things, like where you’re going this weekend or why you were upset yesterday.

If you want to express your love and affection, you don’t have to make grand gestures. You can just greet them every day before going to work or give them cute gifts even without a special occasion.

Building a strong and happy relationship takes practice, and the best way to practice is with small things done consistently.
