6. If you never have disagreements. Ever. Ever. Ever. – your marriage needs attention. (This tells me that real needs and desires aren’t being expressed on a regular basis and that passivity or safety need to be explored).

5. If you’re so busy or distracted that you have less than 30 minutes of quality conversation in your week – your marriage needs attention.

4. If you feel disconnected and not “in tune” with one another spiritually and emotionally – your marriage needs attention.

3. If you have unresolved issues from the past that keep coming up to haunt your relationship in the present – your marriage needs attention.

2. If you are clueless about your spouse’s activities, interactions, and behaviors when you’re not around – your marriage needs attention.

1. If you would rather spend your free time with people other than your spouse – your marriage needs attention.

It’s time to get serious about getting your marriage to a better place. It’s time to be deliberate about giving your marriage the attention it deserves. Because attention breathes life into a marriage.

If you want practical steps, detailed advice, and a candid look into what it means to invest in your marriage and take it to a better place, check out my new book, Choosing Marriage. It’s filled with astonishing survey results from over 1,000 married people. I poured my heart and soul into it, and I believe it’s going to change marriages and relationships across the globe…one choice at a time.
