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.

Weekend Marital Sex Tip 5.13.11 (Top Secret – Men Only)

Dr. Max Vogt — Fri, 13 May 2011 21:45:42 +0000

Marriage help, be a better husband

OK guys you’re going to doubt me on this one, but “hear me now, believe me later.”

I’m going to give you the ultimate sex secret of all time.

It doesn’t come from a psychologist.

It doesn’t come from Dr. Phil or Oprah.

It doesn’t come from Dr. Ruth.

It doesn’t even come from some porn star.

No.

It comes from Billy Joel

Listen. If you really want to “get her hot” here’s what you do.

Get a copy of Billy Joel’s song “Tell Her About It.”

Then do everything he tells you to do in the song.

I’m serious.

Tell her about it
Tell her everything you feel
Give her every reason to accept
That you’re for real

The guy is a lady monster even though he looks like a toad (sorry Billy).

Need proof? He was married to Christie Brinkley.

Got divorced? Well I assume he stopped listening to his own advice.

This is the hottest, easiest and simplest tip I have for you guys.

Your wives will totally agree with me on this one.

And here’s the rest of the story.

Enjoy your weekend,

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.

Don’t argue

Dr. Max Vogt — Tue, 10 May 2011 14:03:11 +0000

One of the biggest mistakes people make in their marriages is arguing.

It never turns out well.

Think back on every argument you ever had and then think about the result.

Was it ever positive?

Did you ever feel good afterwards (really… not just in the vengeful way).

If you want to try a new way, the answers are here:
