Our Journey Together Has Just Begun . . .
So Much Of Our Song Has Yet To Be Sung.

If a lifetime of love and happiness is the way it was meant to be, “Why,” you ask yourself, “isn’t it happening?”

Sure, first you need to find your special person to love, but that’s only the beginning. Once you’ve found each other, you need to have a plan, a way to work together to create the life you want.

Even if both of you are feeling separated and alone, if together you are ready to go after it, lifelong love and happiness can be yours. Your journey is divided into four stages. Stage One, “Believing In Lasting Love And Happiness,” gives you a general understanding of what’s in store for you and helps those who are unsure feel confident a lifetime of love and happiness is possible.

Stage Two establishes the need for a Couple Purpose and explains in detail how to create one for yourselves. Stage Three outlines the ten Focuses used to unlock the love you feel for each other, and Stage Four reveals the steps to discovering unwanted beliefs and changing them (the key to a lifetime of love and happiness).

You may be reading this by yourself, possibly because your special person is not yet ready to share in the experience or simply isn’t in your life. In either case continue reading on your own. As to the former, don’t let reading this alone upset or worry you. You will find ideas and suggestions, sprinkled throughout, to help encourage your loved one. In Stage Three, there are even specific chapters dedicated to this very subject.

Often, just seeing the book around the house, or watching you read it, acts as a curiosity magnet to draw in your loved one. After all, inside, your partner is no different from you. At the very least, you will begin looking at your relationship from a more positive, loving place. After you finish reading, try some of the suggestions, or try to interest your loved one to work with you on your Couple Purpose. Once you get a positive response, it’s time for the two of you to begin reading together.

If you haven’t found your special person, you’ll have a clearer picture of the person you are looking for and know when your loved one comes into your life. You will also have a step-by-step method to begin building the relationship you both want.

If you’re reading this together, you’ll get much more from the experience if you read aloud—sharing as a Couple. When reading Stages Two through Four, it’s recommended you read only one or two chapters at a sitting. Discuss what you’ve read, see how it relates to the two of you, then give yourselves time to absorb your thoughts. Following many chapters are questions and exercises. Besides highlighting the important points and helping you in your discussions, a number of the exercises provide information not found in the chapter.

To pursue your dream of a lifetime of love and happiness, you need to realize there’s more to your relationship than the two of you. There’s also the love-bond energy called Couple....
