Introduction to Agreements
Most relationships involve agreements, with some formalized as contracts. Before entering significant agreements, people typically want to know about compatibility, shared values, common vision, and mutual motivations.
Challenges That Arise
Three main issues can occur in any agreement:
- Uncontrollable incidents - such as job loss or illness
- Changing needs or desires - as circumstances evolve over time
- Mistakes - made during the agreement process
