Taking Your Attention Seriously
When you date somebody, you're figuring out are we compatible? Is someone that I like, I get along with? And so there's a flexibility there. But when you finally marry somebody, that's a big deal. You can't do that anymore. You're with this person and for better or for worse. This idea of taking your attention seriously reminds me of some research that a group of psychologists did at Mackewan University in Alberta, Canada. They talked about how Gandhi and this guy, he's a Prussian prince from the 19th century named Hermann von Puckler Muskow. Both thought, if I break this thing, I was a blight to my character.
