Great post. I think being self aware and constantly self evaluating is half the battle — not the full battle but at least half of it. I know when I was married the first time 20 years ago I never even raised the questions you were asking…and I paid the price for it….

Thanks, Brad. You are totally right that the only way to completely eliminate the tendency to slip into “slackerdom” is to pull the root from the ground, such as simply ridding your life of credit cards to avoid credit card problems. Of course, you can’t eliminate your own selfish tendencies or many of the other things that can have a negative impact on your married life. But you can focus on them and make your own worthy behavior a priority in your life.

The key to progress is to get up more times than you fall and always progress by learning from your mistakes. I have plenty of marriage mistakes to learn from!
