Succeeding as a couple is not always easy even when you love each other. Love crumbles over time, if it is not nurtured and maintained. An intelligent couple who loves each other must know how to make their household happy by respecting certain rules and dealing with problems that can arise with great tact and gentleness so as not to destroy the relationship.
Richard Paul Evans, a famous novelist has lived with his wife Keri, adventures in their marriage for years. Their love was sincere but their expectations about their marriage were oversized, their struggle to impose their power on each side only pushed them away and feel strangers to each other. Their marriage ran adrift.
Until the day Evans had a revelation: he had always demanded that his wife do things for him but never wondered what he could do for her. It was like evidence. Immediately, he decided to ask his wife QUESTION: What can I do to improve your day?
Evans humbly understood that to save his marriage, he would have to drop the mask of the ego and make sure to listen to the needs of his wife.
Today, Evans and his wife are making mutual efforts to mutually improve each other’s day and they have succeeded successfully.
How to ask your partner “What can I do to improve your day?”
- First of all, it is important to stop always blaming your partner because you are also to blame.
- Be truthful when asking the QUESTION to your partner to show interest and trust and to understand that you really want to save your marriage and not manipulate it.
- Love must be sincere and true. So, try to find out what you can do for the person you love and not what they can do for you.
