Free Marriage Advice Can Be Every Bit As Good As It’s Paid Equivalent
It’s interesting to consider that a fairly large percentage of couples that are going through problems in their marriage either stay stuck in a rut that can last weeks, months or years or they book paid counseling sessions. We are certainly not against counseling, we just think it can be an expensive route with no guarantees.
As we’ve mentioned before, the average counseling session in America today costs $95. That is a lot of money to a lot of couples, particularly those with kids. Our question is this – is paid marriage advice better than free marriage advice? Ponder that for a few minutes.
Our own opinion is that both can be equally effective – it all depends on the couple. If they are willing to implement the advice they receive, it doesn’t matter if they have paid $1000 for it or absolutely nothing – it can have a positive impact on the relationship. It all comes down to whether you want to take action. Are you willing to make behavioral changes? Are you willing to listen to your partner’s point of view? Are you willing to do whatever you need to do to get things back on track again? If the answer is ‘yes’ to these questions, then some gentle guidance in the right direction might be all you need.
The same analogy can be made when it comes to products too. There are some outstanding E-books and E-courses on the market today, like The Magic of Making Up which costs around $39. It’s almost a third of the price of an average counseling session, but if you download it, skim through it, leave it sitting on your hard drive and never soak up or implement any of the information in there – it’s money wasted. Does it have the power to help you save your marriage? ABSOLUTELY! It isn’t a magic pill though – it’s down to YOU to actually make the necessary changes. You get out what you put in. If you’re willing to put in, a book like that will help you to get where you want to be in a focused way.
Whether you go to counseling sessions, read the info here at Marriage Advice Online, or buy a product – it’s YOU that determines whether you can make things great again. Both of you. Sounds daunting? When things are going well and you are more in love than ever, just remember – that’s because of YOU. You took what you learned, implemented it and created a sensational marriage all over again. We hope you’ll congratulate yourself for a great achievement. Whoever you turned to for help merely guided you in the right direction. To summarize – free marriage advice can be every bit as good as paid marriage advice. It’s more about how good YOU are.
