Description
What if you could learn important relationship lessons now, rather than after you make the mistakes that most couples make? You can, and this best-selling book will point the way!
Linda and Charlie Bloom were in their early 20's when they met and fell in love. At twenty five they married and their first-born came eighteen months later.
According to Charlie, "We were young and we made a lot of mistakes; enough to fill a book." Fast forward about twenty years.
Charlie's little sister Claire was about to get married and she invited him to read something inspirational at her wedding.
"I couldn't find anything that felt like it really fit the occasion, so I asked Claire if I could come up with a few of the things that I wished someone had told me about before I got married. She agreed and that's what I did. I came up with about 20 one-liners and read them at the wedding. The guests seemed to really like them and afterwards several people asked me if I would send them a copy of my notes. That was the beginning of the book."
On the drive back North from LA, Charlie and Linda came up with a lot more one-liners and then more in the days immediately following the trip.
Charlie: Rather than continue adding to the list, we decided to cut the list back -by this time it had grown to almost 300!- and we added a short vignette of a couple of pages to each one, and just included the top 101 of them."
Here are a few one-liners, without the stories:
The amount of joy and fulfillment that is available in a loving partnership is considerably more that you can imagine!
101 Things is a collection of timeless wisdom that never grows old. It's not only enlightening, but it's easy and fun to read. Read it and discover what over 100,000 other readers have learned: that the creation of a great relationships does take some work but it's worth the effort that it takes.. REALLY worth it!

- Vulnerability is disarming
- Commitment isn't a prison, It's a means to greater freedom
- If you think You're too good for your partner, Think again
- Resisting the temptation to prove Your point will win you a lot of points
- The prince isn't going to come
