Recently I went to a networking event in suburban Chicago where I met a great couple. The husband was a physician and his wife was a counselor. It was thrilling to talk with them because they were genuinely excited to hear what I had to say. They were interested in what I had to say about the male mind set, communication and relationships.
The funny thing was that by the end of the conversation I was far more interested in what they had to say then telling them about me. In fact I've never quite met anybody like them. They take their personal development seriously and work at it together. They even go so far as to read each other self-help books before they fall asleep. Romantic isn't it?
I asked them what books were good and which ones were not so good. They told me that they didn't look at it that way and that there is always a golden nugget to be had from a book.
I've never seen a couple like them before or since. Their positive attitude and desire to improve just blew me away.
From Oprah to Dr. Phil, from Maury to Montel, from Dr. Laura to Dr. Oz, there is no shortage of credible, professional people trying to help you help your relationship. The trick is to pick the right one for you.
This takes some work; it takes some experimenting. Don't be afraid to try something new only to throw it out when it doesn't work. Okay, so the latest hardcover bestseller costs $25 at Target.
Buy it anyway!
If it doesn't work for you, donate it to a couple who it might work for, a church looking for such books or the lending library at work. If the CD or DVD turns out to be a waste as well, donate that too. This won't be money wasted; I promise. One breakthrough solution is worth its weight in gold, trust me!
If money is an issue, go to the library, buy it used off Amazon or simply wait until it comes out in paperback or into the Clearance bins at Borders. While you're waiting, try someone other than the most bestselling, most famous or most handsome expert; my wife and I have discovered many a valuable resource far away from the new releases or bestsellers aisle.
It's all in doing the work; you can't just open the latest, greatest self-help book and expect the words to leap off the page. Yes, it should be written in an entertaining way, but it's still talking about tough things that need to be done.
At the end of the day, it's all about finding the right resource for you.
But how will you find one if you never start trying?
