Short clips and tips of #solidwisdom for all married couples (but mostly for husbands) from #BizMarriage founder Dr. Frank Banfill
"Vacations don't always have to be go-go-go. Take a few minutes to sit with your honey and just listen to the ocean in silence. It's good for the mind, soul, and spirit for both of you."
"Think about your marriage brand. As a couple, who are you at your core? (On the inside!) Your internal identity shapes your external actions. Sit down together today and identify your internal brand: your vision, mission, culture, and competencies. Pick up your own branding workbook to learn more."

"When it's your wife's birthday MONTH, find a way to CELEBRATE HER every single day of the month! Yes! Every. Single. Day! Because "some people" like to celebrate ALL. MONTH. LONG!"
"Harness your past to transform your future! Explore each other's backgrounds. Acknowledge the past hurts. It will strengthen the bond you share together! It will also foster mutual understanding and create a commitment to positive future communications! You can't change the past, but when you talk about it, you can gain valuable insight into navigating future issues together as a couple."
BEDROOM TIP EDITION
"When it's your turn to make the bed, it's probably a good idea to wait until your spouse is OUT of the bed for the day... Better yet, maybe even make the bed when it's NOT your turn!"
"Great marriages don't just happen. They are a result of CONTINUAL WORK! Similar to how your job may require continual education, YOUR MARRIAGE needs ongoing learning and development to GROW and THRIVE...not just SURVIVE! Consider getting one of the @BizMarriage workbooks for couples available on Amazon & BizMarriage.com. After all, 6 foot 4 and full of muscles won't last forever, but your marriage can last a lifetime with a little attention and a lot of #SolidWisdom!"
"Acknowledge the little things in your marriage. Express gratitude for the small gestures that make a big difference. A little unprompted massage? Thank him! A gentle hug...just because? Tell her how much it means! And ladies, don't forget to acknowledge when he takes out the trash...every single time! Grow old together and consistently appreciate the little things..."
"Have you identified your long-term goals as a couple? Consider working backward from your envisioned future! Don't leave your future up to chance. Start with envisioning where you want to be, then identify the milestones you need to hit along the way. This approach helps you break down the big goals into manageable steps. Benefits: Track your progress. Adjust your course, as needed. Stay on target for the vision of your shared future! Check out the Strategic Planning workbook on Amazon or BizMarriage.com."
"Did you know the boiling point of water is 212 degrees? What's your boiling point? Holding on to grudges and past hurts can create an environment where resentment festers and tempers boil. Instead, choose and practice forgiveness. Prioritize your relationship over being "RIGHT." Example: (You:) I'm sorry. I was wrong. Will you forgive me? (Spouse:) Yes! I forgive you! ...Then let it go! Forgiveness is not easy, but it is essential for healing. When you let go of the unforgiveness, you make room for growth, renewed love, and a stronger bond. Don't let yourself boil!"
