Four Steps to a Better Marriage

Harville Hendrix of the Imago Therapy Institute, shares four excellent tips to having a better marriage in a recent edition of Oprah Magazine.  We love these tips:

  1. Connect the positives and negatives that you and your partner have, notice any connections and similarities,
  2. Make a list of what you like best in yourself and least in your partner, discuss it,
  3. Determine who is the maximizer and who is the minimizer in conflicts and discuss it,
  4. Both of you state your deepest frustrations and how each can help each other…

Although these are just the beginning to gaining a deeper understanding of each other and your marriage relationship, it sure is a good start!
