Summary:A broken relationship at work is a lot like a broken leg. It can make you avoid certain places or take a different route in and out of your office. It can dominate your conversations with friends and make your loved ones wish you would just shut up about it. Healing a broken relationship requires you to leave your comfort zone and "put some weight" on the relationship. While you don't have the benefit of a doctor to prescribe a fast cure, the six ways to move recovery along are: 1. Choose to heal. 2. Avoid "compensatory" behaviors or work-arounds. 3. Use crutches and other aids temporarily. 4. Put it up at night. 5. Exercise it as soon as you can. 6. Find a way to trust.
