7 Personality Traits You Need to Survive a Break-Up
Pages: 1 2
Many years ago, when I finally overcame my extremely painful break up, I noticed a strong shift in different areas of my life. I’d become stronger, more independent, my relationship to others had improved - I was simply able to enjoy life more.
That was the moment when I started to plan how to convey this to other people with similar problems. But I wasn’t sure if the techniques I used would help other break up or divorce victims as well.
Maybe they were only helpful in my personal case?
That’s when I went in search of the magic formula for overcoming a break up.
I had a concrete idea of what a coaching program would look like, but I also needed another perspective, not just my own. So I decided to interview as many people as possible about how they survived their break ups or divorces.
The Interviews
I started with relatives, then friends, then friends of friends. I did a survey in a newspaper, and finally with the help of a friend psychologist, I was able to interview numerous people with different experiences.
Among them were a few who seemed to go through this process without any effort - with natural lightness. I then especially targeted those, for I was sure that they had some special traits which enabled them to get this behind them much quicker, and with less effort than all the others.
My coaching program was born.
Today, I want to share with you these special traits and mindsets which the "natural" survivors of break ups have had or have developed. Their knowledge will help you to realize where your own problems lie and how you can overcome them effectively.
Here are the 7 Most Important Traits for Overcoming a Break Up Fast:
1. Independency
Have you learned to detach yourself from your partner during the relationship?
Detachment does not mean that you do not love your partner, but it implies the knowledge that you don’t need your partner for your own happiness. Your happiness comes from within. It’s important to realize this.
Have you ever learned to live alone, that you can survive on your own? This is a very important attribute, which helps when you need to face a divorce with more confidence. This is especially important for housewives, who don’t work outside the home for their living.
2. Having a Life-Goal
Most of the successful break up survivors have a life goal, which is independent from their relationship. This could be a business, a work related career or a success in sports. Anything that satisfies an ambition you are passionate about and which makes you happy.
It is important that your relationship or marriage is not the only thing that’s vital in your life.
3. Mental Control

Some people are so terrified of being alone that they will compromise themselves to the point of actually losing their identity. “I’ll be whatever you want me to be..” You’ve seen it. Maybe you’ve been it. Misery and frustration is always the result. It’s important (for many reasons) that we learn to be comfortable and secure on our own before we launch into a life partnership.
This is great advice. I have friends that have gone through awful breakups and this advice would really help.
Well said, Craig.
There is a proverb from the south of Europe that fits here: it says that two one-legged cannot walk a long road together by holding each other. A fulfilling long term relationship is only possible, if everyone is complete for himself.
Kathylynn, thank you for the kind words.
Yea I agree with yo guys….and going through a break up now I can tell you that being independent and having a lofe goal is critical for me moving forward.
