Marital Conflicts
Often, problems that surface in relationships are indications of underlying self-destructive beliefs. If you have difficulty making changes that could help your marriage, it may be because of such ideas. These thoughts are not actually caused by your partner, but were instilled in you from early life experiences.
To discover the thoughts you have that cause relationship glitches, ask yourself:
- When my partner’s behavior disturbs me, what does that mean about me?
- How do my partners’ upsetting actions make me feel about myself?
- When did I first have these disturbing thought(s) about myself?
Affirming new thought patterns regularly will help you adopt positive beliefs that can overcome your resistance to change and put you on the fast track to relationship success.
