5 Ways to Quickly Improve Your Marriage

Whether your marriage is in the pits, good, great, or
awesome, these 5 tips can quickly take you to the
next level. Reading the tips won’t do it. It’s in the
application that stems from a place of love – love for
yourself and for your mate.


1. Honor Your Differences


No two human beings are alike. We are each created
as unique individuals and that is to be celebrated and
honored. The fact that your mate is different from you
should be a joy. The two of you complement one
another. You are a unique and genuine individual but
together you form a fantastic unit. Your differences
are easier to handle when they are honored. It is
difficult when you are looking for your mate to
conform and be like you. Honor your mate’s
uniqueness; it is part of what makes them who they
are. Don’t try to take that away.


2. Forgive Quickly


Do this for yourself. Unforgiveness can tear you and
your marriage apart. To forgive means you pardon
the offense of the offender and release them from a
debt owed. It does not mean the offender was
correct, nor does it mean you have forgotten the
incident. It is an act of self preservation for you to
forgive. [Take a look at the article.


3. Celebrate Your Victories


Celebrate the big and small victories every day. Yes, every day! In a world that is filled with negativity, you must protect your marriage. Make an effort to talk about the good things. Recount the good times often.
Have those "remember when" conversations filled with laughs and smiles. If you came in under budget
with the groceries this month – celebrate that! If you go a whole week without arguing – celebrate that! If
your spouse looks good to you today – tell them and
celebrate that! We can move through the day and let these little things slip right by, no no no….CELEBRATE THAT


4. Minimize Your Challenges


Whatever you dwell on grows and gains priority in
your life. If you dwell on the challenges with a
negative outlook, your mind will magnify your
problems. With a challenge focused outlook, it is
easy to become a skeptic within your own marriage,
seeing the glass half empty instead of half full.
Handle the challenges but don’t allow them to take
over your outlook.


5. Celebrate You


In a marriage two people come together as one,
while at the same time you are still two individuals
who need good care. Make sure you incorporate time
to refresh yourself so that you are the best person
you can be. Never stop learning and growing.
Maximize the gifts and talents you have been
given.When you are a better you, you will experience a better marriage.
