FISH! - Find the Best in Your Marriage...
1. CHOOSE YOUR ATTITUDE
When you go around looking for the worst, you find it everywhere.
When you realize you have the power to choose your attitude to what occurs in your marriage and your life, you can prepare for the worst, expect the best, and find opportunities you never imagined possible.
When you find yourself with an attitude that is not good, true and useful to you at any given moment, choose a new and improved, more appropriate one!
2. PLAY!
Work, made fun, gets done. Even serious work, done by choosing a lighthearted, spontaneous way, is more satisfying.
Play is not just an activity; it’s a state of mind (and being) that brings new energy to the tasks at your hand. Playfulness sparks creative solutions.
3. MAKE THEIR DAY
When you “Make someone’s day” (or moment) through a small kindness or unforgettable engagement with them, you can turn even routine encounters into special memories.
4. BE THERE
The glue of our humanity is in being fully present for one another. “Being" and "Being there” is a great way to practice wholeheartedness and fight burnout.
It is those half-hearted tasks you perform while juggling other things that wear you out.
Try the FISH! Philosophy – it will make a difference to your days too.
