Crisis Clarity
150 150 Lee H. Baucom, Ph.D.

Has your crisis given you clarity?  Don't let that clarity create problems!Nothing gets your focus and attention like a crisis.  But sometimes, that Crisis Clarity isn’t so helpful.

Let’s backtrack just a minute.  What is Crisis Clarity?

Just for a moment, let’s assume that you have had a sense that something was not right with your marriage.  Maybe you asked about it.  Or perhaps you just hoped for the best — that things would turn around, settle down, and get on-track.

Then suddenly, the crisis emerges.  You learn about an affair.  Your spouse gives you the “love you, not in love with you” speech.  Your spouse wants to separate.  You get divorce papers.  Or… fill in the blank ____________.

It is no longer a theoretical problem.

It is a full-blown crisis!

And that crisis gets your attention.  Your FULL attention.

That is Crisis Clarity.

Yes, it can be helpful.  And it can also be harmful.

How do you understand and handle Crisis Clarity?  I cover it in this episode of the Save The Marriage Podcast.  Listen below.
