Hookups Aren’t Spouse Material…
Summary
- If you look for hookups, it won't lead to life partners or spouses. They are two different things.
- Searching for a spouse requires a different approach than searching for a hookup.
- My wife, Leila, provides immense value to me in many ways.
- It's rare to find a wife who contributes to a business at Leila's level.
- Often, wives are given roles in the business to make them feel included, but Leila genuinely runs our business as the CEO.
- Despite being the face of our business, I acknowledge that Leila is the one making everything happen.
- Our dynamic works well because of Leila’s strong capabilities and contributions to our success.
- Most men might struggle to handle a strong-willed woman like Leila, but it has greatly benefited our business and partnership.

How To Take Action
I would suggest implementing a more thoughtful approach when looking for a life partner, especially if you see them as a future business partner. Think about what qualities matter for long-term success in both life and business. Don't mix this up with short-term goals like hookups.
To start, look for someone who adds value to your life and business. If you find someone like Leila who can genuinely contribute, appreciate their strengths and capabilities. Understand that an equal and strong partnership can significantly boost your business growth.
A good way of doing this is by defining clear roles. If your spouse is involved in the business, give them a role where they can genuinely contribute. Avoid token roles just to make them feel included.
A practical tip is to regularly communicate and align your goals, both personal and professional. This helps in creating harmony and leveraging each other's strengths. For example, you might find that one of you is better at the operational side (like Leila) while the other focuses on strategic thinking.
Ensuring mutual respect is key. Acknowledge each other's contributions openly. If your spouse is handling major parts of the business, like Leila does, give them the credit they deserve. This recognition not only boosts morale but also solidifies your partnership.
Lastly, if you face challenges working together, consider seeking external advice or mentorship. Sometimes an outside perspective can offer solutions you hadn't considered.
By integrating these practices, you can create a strong personal and business partnership that drives both your life and your business forward effectively.
