Is marriage on your mind? Seriously dating? Engaged? Newlyweds? Married a few years? Married with children?
If so, a happy marriage should be worth quite a bit to you. And the best news is:
A Happy Marriage Is Well Within Reach
And it doesn’t cost a penny. It doesn’t take money to be happily married.
We know that personally. We teetered on the brink of bankruptcy and lived below the poverty level for seven years. Since we had been successful corporate executives, our happiness amazed our friends.
Now we have been happily married for more than 32 years. Despite facing more crises than we ever thought we’d experience, our relationship has thrived and grown stronger each year. If you’d like to know more about our misadventures and history read Our Story. What enabled us to be successful? The advice of two strangers. We didn’t ask for their input. We certainly didn’t think we needed “marriage help.” But we listened to be polite.
Their simple suggestions made sense. The effort to apply their ideas was modest.
The Results Are Incredible!
Because of their input, we have:
- Greatly improved relationship skills
- Uncomplicated communication that gets the desired results
- A focused team effort that comes naturally
- Common expectations
- A firm knowledge of what we can count on from each other
- Simplified holidays and special events
- A deep sense of belonging and security
- Very few misunderstandings
- Discussions rather than arguments
- The comfort of knowing we’re loved just the way we are
- The joy of feeling loved right down to the tips of our toes
32 years later we continue to benefit every day.
We’re Paying It Forward
We begged our benefactors to put their secrets in writing. They told us to do it. When they died without doing so, we knew we had to take action.
How could we not share this information with others?
We wrote the award-winning book Mastering Marriage to share the advice they gave us. And now we’re taking what we know online.
