If you read this blog at all, you know I'm a big fan of Family Tree Counseling's You Tube channel.
If you're married and cheating-or-about-to cheat, what's your future?
The Fabulous Mark Smith on the Five Ingredients You Need to Save Your Marriage. (In short, here they are, but the video is linked up there.)
1.)
Let
psychological walls down and be highly motivated—not to “not get divorced,” or
to “save the marriage so we don’t have the public embarrassment and the
financial problems of a divorce,” but to fix your OWN brokenness. Be disturbed
about YOUR OWN dysfunction, have insight into how messed up YOU are and be
motivated to work on THAT.
2.)
Be teachable. Know how much you don’t know and
be open to feedback in your therapy.
3.)
Pain informs you that something is desperately
wrong with YOU. Consider it a gift.
4.)
Trust in the process of therapy.
5.)
Be willing to read books and watch videos and do
your homework.
