Focus on the Positive

Quick Tip Submitted By: Tricia Opdahl, Married 13 Years

Always focus on the positive about your husband, especially when you're not feeling the most positive. I keep a list (used to be a physical written list, now just mental) of his best qualities - those personality traits that will not change and endear me to him. When I ever become tempted to criticize or think negatively of my man, I pull out the list and focus on those things until my negative emotions subside.
