Putting Your Values into Play
Think about little things you could say and do, in line with your values that are likely to enhance your
relationship. Each morning, pick one or two values and look for opportunities to “sprinkle” them into
your activities throughout the day. (You may pick the same values every day, or you may vary them;
it doesn’t matter.) For example, if you pick a value such as “being caring,” look for opportunities to
say caring things, do caring things, or bring a caring quality to your words and gestures.
At the end of the day, write down which values you put into play, what you said and did, and how it
felt. Consider: What does it feel like to act like the partner you want to be? What effect does it have
on your relationship?
