Relationship is all about, love, trust & lust. Like most of trifectas in this world—I believe all things has its own—it’s a myth to get the equilateral triangle.

Working in a creative industry made me quite aware with the concept of ‘sacred trifecta’. We weren’t using it just to convince stubborn clients on budget or deadlines, it’s a real thing. Quality, time & budget, those are the main aspects that determine the output. And—like all the good things in this world—you can’t have it all.
You want maximum quality? Put extra time, in tight budget. Or vice versa. Limited budget in a time constrain, say good by to quality. That simple. There is no such a thing as cheap, fast and good creative output. It’s easy, you tighten some, you loose some. Fair and simple, no?

To me, the relationship is something that has quite similar concept. You want the quality relationship that makes love last longer? Put the trust first, and you can take it easy in the lust factor—not having sex in a while is okay. Or when the trust is somehow evaporates, let lust be the first intuition—ever heard of make up sex?
That simple? Maybe, yes. Fair? Not really.
Of course we expect relationships to be perfect, equal, balance. Unconditional love, full of trust, and lusty thrusting—yea you know what I mean. But so they say, expectation is the root of all disappointments. You just had to realised that you CAN NOT have it all. And that’s why trifecta is invented—I guess.
But the thing is with the sacred trifecta, it’s not rigid, it’s dynamic. Adjust along the way as you need it to be. Don’t be a stubborn client that fixated on one aspects only or even worse, the greedy ones that want to stretch everything.
