I have read many books on relationship and one that I recommend it The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work: A Practical Guide From the Country’s Foremost Relationship Expert by John Gottman, PhD and Nana Silverman. In his book he discusses the follow 7 principles for making a marriage work.
7 Principles for Making Marriage Work:
- Enhance your love maps
- Nurture fondness and admiration
- Turn toward each other (rather than against or away)
- Let you partner influence you
- Solve your solvable problems
- Overcome gridlock
- Create shared meaning
This book may be helpful if you are struggling in you partnership, marriage, and some of these principles can even be helpful if you are having a difficult time with your boss or co-worker. I have included the link to The Gottman Institute below for more information.
