The "Lavish Praise" Secret To A Happier Marriage
By Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott
Recognize your spouse's best traits and praise them regularly to create a reservoir of good feeling and appreciation.
We're not talking about an occasional "Nice meal, thanks." This is a scheduled and deliberate effort to pinpoint and praise the things that make your spouse special for you.
Create a short list of at least five ways your mate is truly outstanding...and start praising him or her for one trait every day with genuine sincerity and appreciation.
Start tomorrow. When you get to the end of the list, begin again.
Five ways my mate is truly outstanding:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Over the years together, couples tend to take each other for granted, but people need praise. Don't we naturally give it to children?
Just hearing the love of your life say, "Wow, I really appreciate the way you...," will create a reciprocating dynamic of affection and appreciation.
