ASK Dan & Mike
We have spent the last 15 years advising and coaching professionals of all backgrounds: CEO’s, sales professionals, managers, athletes and celebrities, etc. Most of our clients have been or are married. Over the years in our work, we have compiled our “go-to” list of reasons why successful marriages stay successful. It is important to note that each marriage places different values on each of these ten reasons. The key is to have an open conversation (see #1) around these topics to uncover what your partner deems important in your marriage. Do NOT assume you know your partners reasons or values! Set a date with each other and begin to talk about our top ten list below.

Keeping intimacy fresh

One of our favorite sayings is, “What is your chance of failure if you never make the attempt?” The answer is 100%! Make the effort to welcome these principles into your relationship. Not doing it may cost you your marriage.
