50% of marriages end in divorce. Out of the half that stay together, 1/3 report being happy, 1/3 are “happy enough” and the other 1/3 are miserable. We actively plan our businesses, goals, and finances, but most of us keep our marriage on auto-pilot and expect it to maintain itself. Communication breaks down, resentment builds, and the love slowly dies.

We are dedicating this month to designing our relationships with our spouses. Lance Salazar from Legendary Couples is back on the show. He has just released The Miracle Morning for Legendary Couples, which he coauthored with Hal Elrod. He breaks down the 4 Elements of a Legendary Marriage for us:

1. The Individual
2. The Partnership
3. Becoming Friends
4. Becoming Lovers

Today, we talk about the first element—the individual. In order to be the best partners and parents, we have to work on ourselves first.
