Affirming your marriage or negating your marriage? – marriage advice

Dr. Max Vogt — Tue, 17 May 2011 15:06:47 +0000

"It's the repetition of affirmations that leads to the belief. And once the belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen."

Claude M. Bristol (1891 – 1951) American author of "The Magic of Believing.

The opposite can happen too.

The repetition of negations or negative statements can create just as deep a belief and conviction.

Mentally keep track of the numbers of times per day you think neutral or negative things about your spouse.

"She doesn't really love me" "He's very inconsiderate"

versus

"He really does everything he can for me and the family, he's a champ" or "What a loving person she is"

Count them and you'll see how it turns out.

If you are unhappy there are a lot more of the negations than the affirmations.

If you are happy then there are a lot more of the affirmations than the negations.

It's a mathematical certainty.

Get it?

Think it isn't as simple as I make it out to be?

It is that simple, if you make a couple changes

Here's how to make a change and turn it around

Tired or bored of being married?

Dr. Max Vogt — Sat, 14 May 2011 21:45:41 +0000

Very few people will admit it, even to themselves.

So just between you and me, are you?

Are you tired or bored of being married?

Are you just politely "putting up with it" because it's the right thing to do?

Maybe the most convenient thing to do.

So let me say right away… there's nothing wrong with that.

Is there?

It's really your call.

It depends on whether you believe for… or hope for… something much better.

Your marriage relationship CAN be a lot better, you know.

You might not believe it, but it's true.

Thousands now have great marriages who never thought they could.

How?

They changed the way they think.

They changed the way they felt.

They changed the way they acted.

So it's up to you.

Same old humdrum… or something new.

Christian Marriage Counseling and Purpose Driven Marriage

Dr. Max Vogt — Thu, 12 May 2011 15:02:28 +0000

"Live has a value only when it has something valuable as its object." George Hegel.

In no place in life is having something valuable as your object as it is in your marriage.

Marriage is not just a social arrangement, it's something far deeper and more meaningful.

It is in fact one of the fastest, deepest and most effective ways to deepen your spiritual life.

Many people seek to have a richer and better spiritual life.

Often they turn to esoteric practices such as meditation, yoga and chanting.

All of that is fine, but completely unnecessary.

Take a deep breath and look into the eyes of your beloved spouse.

Start there.

See who is really there, the person he or she really is.

If you are having trouble even imagining doing that because of the past or because of your own resentments or for some other reason…

Look here for some guidance to get you there:

Aimless marriage vs. goals marriage

Dr. Max Vogt — Wed, 11 May 2011 14:03:26 +0000

.“The soul that has no established aim loses itself.”
Michel Eyquem De Montaigne (1533-1592, French philosopher, essayist)

In marriage, just like in any other human endeavor, it's important to have goals.

Most people drift aimlessly through life and aimlessly through their marriage.

What are your goals in your marriage?

I don't mean your wishes as in "I wish my husband would take me dancing"

I mean your goals.

Specifics that you are going to work toward, to achieve, to have a happy marriage.
