Think: That’s just like them! (DW#549)
Today’s marriage hack is the flip side of yesterday’s.
Smart couples have a particular way of thinking about their spouses when they do something which is positive or pleasing.
They believe that this quality is "just like them". That it is permanent and a part of their true character.
For example:
My wife helped me pack for my trip: that is just like her. Always making sure that I have everything that I need when I am travelling.
My husband did the math homework with my son yesterday. That is so like him. He is happy to do whatever it takes to help his children succeed at school.
My husband got up early to shovel the snow this morning. He is always concerned that we have a clear driveway for when we leave for work and school. He really cares about our family’s safety.
My wife called my family over for Eid just like she does every year. She goes out of her way to make sure that the family gets together and is welcomed into our home. She is always such a great host.
Guess what happens when we begin to notice the positive qualities of our spouses and attribute these to the core of what of makes them special?
They find it very easy to keep living up to the best version of themselves!
