Before I learned how to build a thriving marriage, I made three major mistakes:
- Assuming the “right person” was enough.
I believed that marrying the right person would automatically lead to an excellent marriage. Because of this, I neglected to work on improving my communication skills. - Expecting my wife to embody only strengths.
Unknowingly, I expected my wife to have all her strengths plus mine—without any weaknesses. This mindset led me to focus on correcting her instead of appreciating her for who she truly is. - Underestimating the power of loving like Jesus.
I didn’t realize how much my ability to love selflessly could impact my wife and our relationship. It took me too long to start applying the principles of the Love Workout Method.
If you want to build a thriving marriage, avoid these mistakes.
Start working on yourself, your communication, and your ability to love deeply.
Blessings,
