What You'll Learn:
The harmonic, organ-played tune of “Here Comes the Bride” doesn’t always echo as background music in a married couple’s life. Often, a couple’s relationship sounds more like a series of snags and false notes, each one colliding into the next. That’s exactly what authors Nate and Kaley Klemp heard when assessing the state of their own 15-year marriage. Thankfully, they escaped this increasingly common marital tune by rewiring their relationship style. In their work, the Klemps reveal the many benefits and elements of the “80/80 model,” a way of approaching one’s spouse with a kind of genuine selflessness that may have been missing since the honeymoon.
Key Insights:
- Most marriages are some combination of three types: the 80/20, the 50/50, or the 80/80 relationship style.
- Make your partner’s day every day with (more-than-a-little) “radical generosity.”
- Book a table for two and plan your marriage around mutual desires and “shared success.”
- Doing too much in a relationship can be just as damaging as doing nothing at all.
- Practice might not make a relationship perfect, but thoughtful, daily action will get it a whole lot closer.
