If your marriage could talk to you, what do you think it would say?"Hey, great job you're doing, keep it up!"Or:"You started off strong, but you've been letting things slide lately."Or maybe:"Um...how about doing some heavy lifting once in a while?"The fact is, your marriage can't hold things up all on its own: it needs support. And since you want your marriage to last, you need support that lasts. Support that won't buckle under inevitable times of stress. Support that will carry your relationship through life's crises.Because it is one of the most important (if not THE most important) aspects of your life, your marriage needs more than good thoughts or crossed fingers to keep it strong-it needs pillars. Although falling in love is wonderfully beyond-words and something that feels like it happens to us (rather than something we make happen), when it comes to love and marriage, the truth is, a successful marriage is built, not magically materialized. Love and commitment are key, but they are only part of the relationship foundation.A marriage that stands the test of time is built on effort, mindset, knowledge, habit.And whether or not your spouse believes your relationship needs this kind of focused attention, you can do much for your marriage entirely on your own.That's where The 7 Pillars of a Lasting Marriage comes in, a guide designed for anyone in or considering a long-term relationship. It offers you the informational approach you need to create a solid, happy marriage-one that reflects who you want to be as a spouse; one that brings you and your partner closer together; and one that feels like home day after day.Written by a psychologist and couples counselor with over 20 years in the field, The 7 Pillars is easy to implement and includes relationship advice used in real-life counseling to help couples deepen intimacy and fortify their bonds. A little book that packs a big punch, it can be read in one sitting, but its impact will unfold into your marriage for years to come.So if you're ready to stop wondering about the strength of your marriage and start giving your marriage the gift of strength, bring the wisdom of Dr. Nicastro's pillars into your mind and heart...if your marriage could talk, it would thank you for it!
