Great post. My wife and I are in widely disparate fields, medicine and logistics, ad frequently experience what I will now call a Third Mindlessness. Some great practical tips here! We will continue working towards our ideal: togetherness. Thanks for sharing.

A fantastic article, one of the best in the last while. My wife and I try to live this philosophy, and although we have a ways to go, I can see the benefit! Thank you McKay’s for Sharing.

I really enjoy this site. I find it better than so many women’s sites, and find it interesting that it is co-written by a woman. The articles are great and I share lots of them with my two sons. Keep up the good work!

I have read many articles and many comments and never left one myself but I think comment 51 may have the best suggestion I have seen. Firstly, I want to second that being with someone who will not always just cow down but stand up to you and challenge you and have her own thoughts and ideas is a major turn on. Secondly, let’s be honest, many of us young men come from broken homes. We don’t know what a quality marriage looks like or maybe even a quality woman in some cases. Personally I am in a long term committed relationship but I find myself every once in a while question my choice of significant other.

I totally agree!! I just regret that I had to get an ex-wife before I found what I think is a Master Mind partnership. I can say that an involved, ACTIVE partner is an awesome thing to have. My ex was incredibly smart, but she’d rather be fat and lazy than stay married. My GF is smart, fit, ambitious, and has spine enough to go toe to toe with me! Man that is such a turn-on! I would encourage a spin-off article: Identifying a quality woman… help some singles avoid the trauma of marrying the wrong partner.

I love Johnny Cash, he and June Carter were a great team. They loved performing music together, they shared a unique vision and a passion for their work and because of that they had a long and happy marriage.

This is a bit off topic, but exactly what model is the motorcycle in the opening picture?

Brett & Kate,

This article has come in at the right time for me; I’m getting married to a wonderful woman soon.

Thank you very much. You’ve made it an excellent day for me.

It’s that “check your pride at the door” rule which I found to be the most important. I’ve been blogging for around 7 years now and when I mentioned a few ideas to my fiance, my first reaction to her feedback was “well, what does she know anyway?!!” This was absolutely the wrong approach (for both a master mind project and for a relationship in general).

Now I make sure to take the time and give her ideas the attention they deserve, as she does for me. The result has been a much better blog and several new business ideas.
