60-SECOND PLAN TO RECONNECT WITH YOUR SPOUSE Part 7

in #marriage6 years ago

WORK TOGETHER AS A TEAM

Imagine...

You and your spouse handle problems together as teammates...

Partners...

And friends...

You aren't at odds with each other...

It's no longer you against them.

Are you struggling with any of these?

You're one.

Unified.

Reconnected.

What would that feel like?

It's essential that YOU make changes to get on

Don't wait for them to come to you...

Because if they're “checked-out” that ain't going to happen.

Right?

When problems start cropping up in a marriage it seems to have a snowball effect...

People start fighting, tension rises, and as a result there is more disconnection (which causes more fighting and tension).

Being able to effectively address concerns AS A TEAM will do more for the healing of your marriage than any other skill you learn.

ACTION STEP:

Next time tensions rise...

  1. Instead of letting it move the two of you further apart, you will connect through common interests.
  2. Take their argument and pick out what you can agree with.
  3. Even if it is acknowledging how they came to their conclusion.
  4. From there move the conversation towards cooperation.
  5. Tackle the problem together.

Ready for the final step to reconnect with your spouse... you want that, right?!
