Dont Sweat The Small Stuff In Love

Richard Carlson has helped millions of people reduce the stress in their everyday lives, with their families, and in the workplace, with his Don't Sweat the Small Stuff national bestsellers. Now, he and his wife, Kris, tell readers how to apply this immensely popular and helpful philosophy to one of the most important aspects of life -- the love relationship. Heartache, anger, insecurities, and just the daily hassles of living together can cause friction in even the most happy couples. And for people who've been together for years, there's the problem of simply taking each other for granted, and not putting enough energy into keeping the relationship vivid and alive. Don't Sweat the Small Stuff in Love tells couples how to live together with revived passion, how not to let the little everyday irritations get to them, and how to appreciate each other in new and exciting ways. In beautifully written but very practical essays, Richard and Kris Carlson tell listeners how not to overreact to a loved one's criticism, how to get past old angers, how to let go of your top three pet peeves, and how to choose peace over irritation. They include such helpful advice as thinking before your speak, learning to cast away jealousy, avoiding one-upping, and not confusing your own frustration with a problem in the relationship. Essays such as "Try Not to Treat Ordinary Stuff Like Front-Page News" and "Become a Low-Maintenance Partner" will spur discussion with your spouse that will shed new light on even the longest-term relationships. Don't Sweat the Small Stuff in Love is the audiobook that will help make you and your partner's life together more peaceful, less stressful, and more fun.
