Imagine what a difference in your life it might make if you had the ability to distinguish the truth from beliefs that are commonly-held, but untrue.
According to bestselling authors and relationship counselors Linda and Charlie Bloom, accepting certain commonly-held beliefs such as: “Couples with great relationships don’t fight” or “Little things aren’t worth getting upset over” and “If my partner were more like me we would have a better relationship” can prevent you from building a solid, mutually fulfilling partnership.
This book offers compelling stories and valuable suggestions for distinguishing truth from fiction and helps readers to recognize myths and avoid falling into the trap of believing everything that you think! Happily Ever After provides you with communication guidelines and tools that will enhance and strengthen your ability to avoid many of the pitfalls that so many couples experience when they mistakenly accept widely-held opinions that are masking as “truths”.
