It's amazing how the best advise on marriages are in management books. It is claimed that many wives read The Goal to understand the goal of marriage. Here's another sweet but crisp pointer to a happy married life in the gem of a book, The Go-Giver.
"I think there is one reason, and only one reason, that we have stayed together so long and are as happy together today as we were forty-eight years ago - more so, in fact. That reason is this: I care more about my wife's happiness than I do about my own. Al I've ever wanted to do since the day I met her is make her happy. And here's the truly remarkable thing - she seems to want the same thing for me."
"Wouldn't some people call that codependent?" ventured Joe.
"Yes, some probably would. Know what I call it?"
"Happy?"
Pindar laughed, " Yes certainly that. I was going to say, I'd call that success."
Ok, The Go-Giver is a work of fiction.
So?
