EXCERPTS

“You either take the next step and fall in love with each other, or you fall out of love with love and it’s over. The whole fantasy of being in love with love needs another person for it to work, but it doesn’t have to be any particular person. I think you’re right. Mark’s not in love with you, he’s in love with love, and you’re the person who makes the fantasy work for him.” “Why do you call it a fantasy?” “It’s a fantasy because it isn’t real. Love is real; it takes two real people with real feelings for each other.” – William Glasser, M.D.”

  • Staying Together

    “We are involved with the wrong mate and he or she must change for us to be happy. But we remain the same, our mate doesn’t change, and our unhappiness continues. What we have to understand is that the only life we can control is our own and, in almost all instances, we can choose to change. “Depending on what changes we make in our lives, there is a strong possibility that our mate also may choose to change. And if he or she changes in the right direction, our marriages can become much better. Therefore, we can change only our own lives; we cannot change what others do. It is to this vital truth that this book is addressed.” – William Glasser, M.D.

  • Eight Lessons for a Happier Marriage

    “If you read each lesson together willingly, talk it over, and try to put the information in the lessons to work in your marriage, you should be able to enhance your marital happiness. The eight lessons become a marriage enrichment experience. As you go through the book, each of you will learn how to behave differently with each other than you are behaving now, and this way will be different from how almost all married couples have behaved with each other for thousands of years. From our experience, while the lessons will be new to you, they are neither difficult to understand nor complicated to put into practice.”— William Glasser, M.D. and Carleen Glasser, M.A.

  • Getting Together and Staying Together

    “The power of choice theory is that it helps us get along with other people, especially with the people close to us. In our experience, it is the only way to maintain a long-term, happy marriage. What we do when we practice choice theory when we have even an inkling of a problem is to think before we deal with each other. The first thing we think about is avoiding using the seven deadly habits, because they will separate us further and increase the problem. Next we make sure that we use one or more of the seven caring habits as we attempt to deal with our differences. As simple as it seems, it is almost impossible to do unless you recognize how much harm you are doing to you marriage with the deadly habits.”— William Glasser, M.D.

  • The Choice Theory Manager

    “No management tradition is more firmly fixed in the United States than that of the boss. Bosses are in charge of the workers; they tell them what, when, and how to do their job. They have the power to reward them for doing a good job and to punish them for not doing what they are told to do. If workers had no union or civil service protection, not only their economic future but their happiness is in the boss’s hands. Unfortunately, it is the unwise use of this power that effectively prevents us from achieving the quality work that is needed if we are to regain our competitive place in the market.” “Therefore, what mangers must do for quality is give up bossing or boss management and start leading or using lead management.”
