The best relationships that passed the test of time all have a few elements which set them apart from all the failed relationships and marriages around the globe.
Support is the most potent element of a successful relationship, right next to communication and connection. The degree to which both parties support and comfort each other in times of sadness, change, failure, war, and even unpredictable events determines the overall nature and vitality of the relationship.
Your Spouse Can Help You Achieve Career Success
Support through difficult times strengthens the relationship. Imagine if you had an all-important concert to attend, one with which you've been planning and practicing for months. Your confidence in your ability to perform will constantly be fluctuating from the moment you received your invitation until the night you go out and take center stage.
On some days, your singing is perfect, while on others, you're failing to hit a single note. Having an environment full of positive energies is guaranteed to give you the boost you need to perform without the pressure.
More importantly, having a close partner who is there for you whenever you're feeling down will provide you with the courage to give an excellent performance by instilling the belief that you can accomplish the features you set for yourself.
On the contrary, imagine if you were running an online business. In this hypothetical situation, your products aren't selling very well, and it looks like you won't be able to pay the bills for the month. You look to the corner of your eye only to find a gaze conveying such abject contempt and disappointment.

Your spouse is pressuring you to make a certain amount of money, and it needs to happen fast. In this scenario, your partner is only interested in their personal security and comfort. Living with that kind of person can be detrimental to your career's success, vitality, and future. Motivation by fear isn't enough to turn an unfortunate event into something extraordinary.
Benefits of Having a Supportive Spouse
When we do receive support from our loved ones, we perform better in all walks of life because we know that if and when we fall, we'll be caught in walls of cotton, which will allow us to recover faster and take more risks.
The two previous examples show a contrast between couples who support one another in everything they do versus someone who ultimately cares about themselves. Think about those scenarios and how the behavioral nuances of those particular people can affect other areas of their partner's life. It's not just going to be their career that's involved: It will be their mental health, physical health, and home environment.
Try to make the chain of love as strong as it can be. Having someone behind your back who could look after you as an emperor penguin insulates his chicks is instrumental for relationship success. Remember: your success is their success and vice versa.
