Hi friends. I am often asked about how things turned around between myself and my wife.
Today I want to share with you my response to a video from “Luke”.
Luke’s questions are one I get on a regular basis and it seemed like a good opportunity to share with others asking the same questions.
Here’s Luke’s email…
Hi Sven,
Thanks for allowing me some air time. 2 simple questions to start with.
You flipped your thinking/acting about your wife.
1) How long from when you ‘flicked the switch’ did you see some change (in your wife/relationship)?
2) How long from when you ‘flicked the switch’ would you describe your relationship as what you were after?
Yes, these sound like very outcome dependent questions.
I’m still quite interested in the answer.
Let me know what you think!
