Marriage, Relationships and Toxicity

The takeaway from "Marriage, Relationships, and, Toxicity" is that you will become more aware of your actions, your decisions, and the way you respond to those with whom you are in a relationship. Give thought to your actions, measure them only against your own yardstick, and determine if you are going to continue letting things and situations take control of you or, if you are going to take charge and stand up for yourself. After all, this is your life and the only one that you are given. Make the absolute best of it and stop letting others ruin it for you. Stop feeling that you must accept toxic behaviors from someone with whom you are married or in an intimate relationship with.

The purpose of this book is to alert you to potential "road signs" on your journey through marriage or relationship because, after all, it is a journey. It will show you how to assess your marriage from a different perspective and the people with whom you are in a relationship. Jones provides road signs as an analogy because we're all familiar with them and their importance. We instinctively know what it means to "Stop", are alerted to the "Danger" signs, and recognize the signs that say, "Wrong Way." Taking these principles of safety signs and applying them to our marriage, relationships, and decision-making will ultimately allow us to enhance our lives and deal with sensitive issues that often arise. You will realize the importance of these signs to avoid hazardous situations altogether. Of course, just seeing the signs is not enough. Action must be taken to produce results. Once you are familiar with their meaning, you'll know how to respond.
