1500 PEOPLE GIVE YOU MARRIAGE ADVICE Mark Manson

1500 PEOPLE GIVE YOU MARRIAGE ADVICE

Mark Manson @markmanson, author of "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck", invited the readers who follow him on his website to answer this question:

▪︎Anyone who has been married for 10+ years and is still happy in their relationship...what lessons would you pass down to others if you could?

▪︎What is working for you and your partner?

▪︎ Also to people who are divorced, what didn't work previously?

1500 people responded to that invitation.

Swipe to read what they had to say.

You can read the full length post at markmanson.net

I was intrigued because what these folks had to say resonated with me and my perspectives about marriage and thought to share their advice with you.

ONE MARRIAGE TRUTH YOU NEED TO EMBRACE You will e

ONE MARRIAGE TRUTH YOU NEED TO EMBRACE

You will experience challenges in your marriage.

I wish that I could assure you that you won't meet difficult times in your marriage.

I studied my parents" 60+ years in marriage and my parents-in-law's 50+ years in marriage before they died.

I have been in my own marriage for close to 35 years now.

I have reviewed research into marriage and related issues over an extended period of time.

From my findings, it will be foolish of me to tell you that you can have a marriage that is free of challenges.

I can't.

Adversity is just a part of life and of marriage. Period.

The way you think about life's challenges affects your ability to cope with tough times.

This week's affirmation statements offer you an opportunity to build your mental muscle. Instead of collapsing in the face of your challenges, use these statements to develop a productive dialogue with yourself.

Healthy self-talk will help you to feel better and inspire you to respond to your challenges in healthy and productive ways.

Have a really great week ahead!

THE 50-YEAR CHALLENGE At The Right Fit Marriage

THE 50-YEAR CHALLENGE

At The Right Fit Marriage Academy, we once looked at the topic, What Is The Most Important Criteria To Consider Before Getting Married?

Most people said that criteria for them is Value Systems and they gave really good reasons.

We had a robust discussion about Values.

I held back from telling you what Mummy Mo considers the most important criteria. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Did you assume that I also thought that Value Systems are the most important criteria?

Well, while I agree that it is important for a husband and wife to have values that are aligned, Value Systems are not the most important criteria for me.

I hear you say, "What?!!! Mummy Mo, What can be more important than Value Systems?" 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Hear me out.

The most important criteria for me is a willingness to commit to what I call The 50-year Challenge.

The 50-year Challenge? What is that?

The 50-year Challenge means committing to marriage with one person knowing that there is no turning away from that relationship.
Were I a single person now, I'd ask myself, "Modupe are you ready to commit to living 50 years in Marriage to another person, knowing that I once you say "I do" there's no going back?" If and when I answer Yes to that question, I'd also want to know whether the person that I'm thinking of marrying is willing to make the same commitment.

You see, if we both are willing to commit to The 50-year Challenge, we both will also be committed to do everything in our power to make the marriage work.

Aligning our values will be one of the things that we are both willing to do.

We will commit to working together collaboratively to discover how to keep the boat of our marriage afloat and sail towards the 50-year mark.

For singles, making the choice of who to marry will take on a new meaning.

For married people patience and understanding will take on new meaning.

At The Right Fit Marriage Academy, we look beyond the surface when discussing marriage issues.

See the bio for the link to join our community.

Marriage will take on completely new meaning for you.

SHARING LOVE Today, I'm putting the spotlight on

SHARING LOVE

Today, I'm putting the spotlight on my colleague in the Family Life Industry Ofonime Bassey @bassey_ofonime

Ofonime is a Parenting Coach.

She works with Teens and Parents of Teens.

I have referred parents who were worried about their teens to her. Again and again, the feedback from both the teens and their parents has been heartwarming. Both parent and teen become a team moving in the same direction.

Her work intrigues me. Why? The primary way a person learns about marriage is by watching their parents.

When there is a disconnect between parents and their teens, there is the probability that the teen will miss out on the developmental tasks and phases that prepare them for life in marriage.

I like that Ofonime works with both parents and their teens to help them understand how to navigate this phase of the teens' lives TOGETHER.

If you want to know more about her work, hurry over to @bassey_ofonime and follow her.

If you need guidance and support to navigate the teenage years with your teen, her one-on-one consultations are 🎯

Who are your friends? Your true friends? Who are the people who make up your inner circle?

WHO ARE YOUR FRIENDS?

Your friends have profound influence in your life, especially during the moments when you're vulnerable and at crossroads in decision-making.

▪︎When your spouse has hurt you and you're thinking of how to respond.
▪︎When you and spouse have different perspectives on an issue that important to both of you.

If you're surrounded by the wrong voices, you might be encouraged to choose path that will hurt your marriage.

Show me your friends and I'll show you your future in life in general, and in your marriage in particular.

In the early years of my marriage, my closest friend was the voice of reason when I was angry or unhappy with my Chairman. Her wise and dispassionate counsel prevented me from many foolish actions.

With the benefit of hindsight, I'm glad that I had such a friend in my corner.

Who are your friends? Your inner circle? Where is their influence leading you to?

DID YOU KNOW THAT....

There are six core human needs that drive your behaviour and that of your spouse. They are:

▪︎ certainty (safety/control/consistency)
▪︎variety (adventure, challenge)
significance (meaning/importance)
▪︎love and connection (communication/approval/connection)
▪︎growth (emotional/spiritual/physical development)
▪︎contribution (give/serve others)

Pay attention to these needs when you sense that there is some tension between you and your spouse.

Which of them are you seeking to meet? Which ones is your spouse seeking to meet?

This week's affirmation reminds you that if you:
▪︎pay attention to your own needs,
▪︎recognise and respect your spouse's needs, and
▪︎strike a balance between both

you'll be choosing to develop a happy relationship.

Will you try this out this week?
