Go from "rolemate" to "soulmate"

When I am giving premarital coaching to young couples, or marriage coaching to married couples, they often want to focus on their problems or potential problems. Of course these issues are of great concern to couples so its not always easy to direct their focus to the solutions, not the problems. Problems are unimportant. Solutions are what is important and with his book, MARRIAGE FITNESS, Mort Fertel has given a simple, yet effective four step plan to marital solutions. I can't tell you how refreshing for me it has been to read a book by someone who understands and teaches what marriage is really all about. Love. I often use the analogy that love is like a fire. Even an out of control wildfire will eventually run out of fuel and burn itself out. To keep the fire of love alive, we must continually stoke the embers and feed it fuel. This book teaches it differently but essentially says the same thing, and shows couples how to provide the fuel their marriage must have to survive. The book is very well written and contains some excellent projects for couples. Certainly intended for couples working together, there is also definite help here for one with an uncommitted spouse to help get things back on track. Part 1, the first two chapters, give couples a deeper understanding of love. This may sound ridiculous, but most people confuse character traits with what I term "soul conscientiousness". Fertel deftly explains why character love makes you role mates, not soul mates. If you really want to take your marriage to a higher level, it is critical that you come to understand the differences between what I call outward love (loving the character traits of a person) and inward love (making the choice within your soul to love a person on the inside, regardless of their character traits). Once you fully understand this concept, your marriage (and innerhappiness) will be changed forever. Part 2 is Fertel's 4 step program for building and maintaining love in your marriage, as well as his twenty exercises. Mort Fertel has certainly given my some new ides on how couples can enrich their marriages and take them from ordinary to extraordinary. This is one of the best books you'll find on building a strong marriage. Highly recommended. Pastor Monty Rainey

It saved my marriage...Thank you.

This book came highly recommended by my therapist and it is in fact everything it's cracked up to be. I used the practices and it saved my marriage. It's easy to read and what's recommended is easy to do...even without my wife's cooperation. After reading the book, I then signed up for the author's tele-boot camp, which was even more helpful, more info, more practices, incredibly comprehensive, and worth every penny.

Great book, saved my marriage

Great book. Powerful insights and very practical ideas that really worked in my marriage. In fact, I would say that this book saved my marriage. The author has other products that I would recommend also...the tele-boot camp is even better than the book and it comes with the book included. I should have just gone for that from the start. Recommended.

A Must-Read Book

As someone who has read my fair share of self-help books, I will tell you that Mort Fertel has written an outstanding book-- one that offers readers clear, concise, and practical ideas to improve their marriage. This book should be in the hands of every married person, as I believe it can enhance every marriage when things are going great and even when they are a bit rocky. Do yourself a favor and read this book.

It works.... thank you.

I'm not a book reviewer but Marriage Fitness is a must read for any spouse in any situation...even a healthy marriage such as mine. I'm familiar with some of the other approaches to relationship success and I have to say that Mort Fertel has something completely unique to say...and my wife and I both think that his message is "spot on." What's great about Marriage Fitness is that rather than a bunch of unrelated quick-fix techniques; you get a step-by-step system that's part of a comprehensive and unified plan. It all makes sense; everything the author says and how it fits with what he prescribes we do. You really feel like you're working on and learning about the FOUNDATION of your marriage-what's really important. And let's the face it, the proof is in the pudding... and it works!
