Do You Have What It Takes?

As you watch and feel your marriage coming to an end, there are many emotions that take over. I understand so well the feelings of failure, fear and sadness. How could there be anything other than those feelings?

Here’s the part that I need to share with you because focusing on things like this will make all the difference in how you fare after your divorce is final.

For a few minutes in the morning and a few minutes before you go to bed, try to ask yourself some questions. These were the questions that I asked myself. The answers helped me to have the confidence to do what I needed to do to survive. Hopefully they will help you too.

Questions to ask yourself

• Am I good person?
• Did I try to be a good wife?
• Did I try to be the best mother I could be?
• Did I put the needs of my family first?
• Do I have what it takes to succeed after all of this is over?
