Research has proven that any encouragement received from romantic partners to pursue goals in the disciplines of career, friendship, school, and fitness makes people more inclined to pursue their goals seriously and achieve them.
Encourage Your Partner To Focus on The Positive Aspects
You should not let your partner become paralyzed by any obstacles. On the contrary, you should encourage him or her to focus on the positive aspects of achieving their goals. This does not mean that you ignore any obstacles; it is equally important to consider them and plan on how to manage past them.

Help Your Partner Develop Strategies
If your partner has a desire to exercise more, you can help them come up with a specific plan by focusing on goals that are realistic and easily achievable. The plans should be specific and not be generalized in any way. For example, if the subject at hand is about having a jog every day, the focus should remain on this activity without just mentioning exercise for three times a week.

Help Your Partner Maintain Their Willpower
The willpower of your partner can be depleted if he or she exerts self-control on a single activity. As such, they would use their resources, making it impossible for them to gather the willpower needed for other tasks. For example, if your partner is studying for an exam and needs a late night snack, it would be difficult for them to resist and choose an Apple over a piece of chocolate cake because their willpower would have been depleted.
If you are trying to help your partner by motivating them, you should guide them to avoid activities that are not important and those that require some effort from them. If your partner is trying to quit smoking, it does not make sense to go to a party where they would be required to socialize with smokers. You need to help your partner to stay away from such situations if your intention is to help them.
Do Not Interfere Unless Requested

Sometimes, your partner may not want the help you offer or may just not need it. Trying to offer help when it is not needed or wanted may lead your partner to believe you don’t have faith in them, which can create unnecessary differences between the two. Therefore, it does not make sense to offer help unless it is requested.
Be Subtle
On occasions, people can react negatively when obvious efforts are made to offer help. In such cases, offer help indirectly without making it obvious. Giving your partner the feeling that he or she isn’t being helped can avoid any potential negative consequences of being controlled or threatened. Being subtle will not only make your partner comfortable but will also instill a sense of confidence in them.
