Quotes

  • Soliloquios Literarioshas quoted6 years ago
    Too often, people have been made to believe that no one can change, a wonderfully rationalizing thought that seems to forgive our unwillingness to challenge ourselves. You can change. Any part of yourself that you don’t like or that is not working for you is in your power to change. To believe differently is to question the very basis of being human. We are different from the rest of the animal world because of our ability to think and feel on a level that allows us to change and adapt.

    The point is, I’m pretty sure you were not talking incessantly about the stress of money, kids, and business when you were dating, because if you were, you never would’ve gotten married. That kind of conversation didn’t make you fall in love. I don’t know why you think it’s going to sustain your love.
  • Soliloquios Literarioshas quoted6 years ago
    ’s quite fascinating that if I were to ask you what it takes to be a great parent or a great career woman, you’d immediately tell me things like “hard work, tremendous effort, intense focus.” But if I asked you what it would take for you to be a great wife, you’d likely scratch your head a bit and wonder out loud, “Well, we went on vacation sometime in the last millennium. We had lunch out recently . . . oh wait, that wasn’t lunch, it was a funeral.” It seems that all of us want to ignore in our marriage the primary principles for success for every other part of our lives and somehow expect a glorious outcome. Don’t bet on it. In order for you to cultivate intimacy and appreciation into the relationship, it’ll likely take more focus and time together
