💡 Strengthen Your Relationship, One Day at a Time

Today’s wisdom comes from The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work by John Gottman.

John teaches us: “Successful marriages are not the result of grand romantic gestures, but small daily actions.”

Here’s how to build a thriving relationship today:

First, make small positive bids. Gottman writes: “Turn toward your partner’s emotional bids.”

Next, express appreciation. He says: “Expressing gratitude builds emotional closeness.”

And finally, create shared meaning. Gottman reminds us: “Strong relationships are built on shared goals and values.”

So… What’s one thing you can do today to deepen your connection with someone you love?
