Have y ou ever simply forgotten that you own a valuable
ou ever simply forgotten that you own a valuable
	 resource? Or did you remember it but dismissed it as
	 something that didn’t really matter? I am embarrassed
	 to admit that I buried something that I should have
	 been sharing with you. I just did not realize how
	 valuable it really was.
	It happened this way. I had been working with Ted and
	Margo for several months and Margo was getting
	increasingly frustrated that Ted just could not seem to
	understand why she was so unhappy in their 18-year
	marriage. It wasn’t that they didn’t love each other,
	they did. But like so many couples they just couldn’t
	seem to communicate.
	Furthermore, Ted was too stressed to read the books
	about marriage that Margo loved. I finally remembered
	that Jonathan and I had worked with Jim Edwards several
	years ago to create a “quick read audio book.” It had
	been uploaded to Amazon in an obscure location that
	even I had trouble locating. It had never sold a single
	copy!
	To make a long story short, I unearthed a copy of the
	CD and after a few more weeks they finally went away
	for a weekend and listened to it while they were
	driving to their destination. And they talked and they
	talked and they talked!
	During our next session they told me how they wished I
	had given them the recording when they first started
	counseling. They raved about how useful it was and
	insisted that I make it available to other couples.
	I wanted to, but there was a problem – it had an
	uninviting title and was deeply buried in the music
	section of Amazon. I thought about putting it on
	Audible.com but Audible only publishes recorded books
	and it was not a “real book” – yet!
	Now it is! It’s called Stop These Common Beliefs from
	Poisoning Your Marriage: A Conversation with Experts
	(Secrets of Happy Relationships Series Book 1) and it’s
	available in 3 different formats! It’s a small print
	book, an ebook and a downloadable audio book! Yea!!!
	 Currently, it has 8 5-star reviews on Amazon and I just
	 put it on Smashwords too. So it is also available in
	 all electronic formats. Get a copy now to read or
	 listen to yourself and I would love to see your review
	 when you have completed it.
	And think about your own lost and buried resources.
	What do you have tucked away that would be valuable to
	you or to others. It’s time for a treasure hunt.
