Morning Coffee With Larry Quicksall

Good Morning and Good Coffee!  Today I want to share with you one of my favorite marriage books titled "The Triumphant Marriage" (1995) by Dr. Neil Clark Warren (yes, the eHarmony guy).  Dr. Warren spent decades working with couples on their marriages and wrote several books through the 1990s and 2000s, and I absolutely love The Triumphant Marriage.  The book was re-released in 1998 with the exact same content but a new title: "Learning to Live with the Love of Your Life and Loving It" (way too long of a title in my opinion!)  Anyway, I've used this book for years in marriage counseling, and today I cover the 10 secrets revealed in this book.  This is a podcast you don't want to miss!  If you want to order the book from Amazon, here is the link: Click Here --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/larry-quicksall/message

Good morning everybody! Today I want to talk about high functioning anxiety and how things can look to other people as a positive and desirable trait while at the same time it is actually anxiety that the person is experiencing but the way that it’s expressed it allows for better functioning and other types of anxiety. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/larry-quicksall/message

Good Morning, Good Coffee & Happy Labor Day!  Today I want to share with you a post from Lies in Disguise - BPD & Trauma Recovery on Facebook from January 22, 2017, which has to do with forgiveness when the offender won't apologize.  This is a great post, and I'll have it shared in the comment section on the Morning Coffee with Larry Quicksall Facebook page. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/larry-quicksall/message

Good Morning!  Please keep the Caribbean, Bahamas and Florida in your prayers as the hurricane moves through those areas.  Life can throw some big storms your way, but how we look at life's storms can make a difference.  Today I share my thoughts on the idea that not all storms come to disrupt your life, some come to clear your path. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/larry-quicksall/message

Good Morning!  Grab your coffee and let's talk about How to Earn Self-Respect.  A good starting point is to follow these 5 steps: 1. Do hard things daily, 2. When you say you're going to do something do it even when it gets hard, 3. Get control of your emotions, 4. Stop quitting when it gets hard, and 5. Shine a bright light on all of your positive qualities. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/larry-quicksall/message

Good Morning and Good Coffee!  Today I want to share with you a jam-packed meme that features a picture of Morgan Freeman (I don't know if he really said this, but when I read it I hear Morgan's voice in my head - Ha!)  Anyway, it goes like this: "Self-control is strength. Calmness is mastery. You have to get to a point where your mood doesn't shift based on the insignificant actions of someone else.  Don't allow others to control the direction of your life.  Don't allow your emotions to overpower your intelligence."   --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/larry-quicksall/message

Good Morning!  Today I was inspired by a meme titled 5 things to quit.  However, I believe it is missing what we should do, not just what we should quit.  So today I add to it "5 Things You Should Do."  I have both the original and my meme for these on the Morning Coffee with Larry Quicksall facebook page.  Have a great one everybody! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/larry-quicksall/message

Good morning and good coffee everybody! After some heavy rains last night I went to check on my mom‘s pontoon boat.

Good Morning and Good Coffee!  I was doing a little research the other day and found a list of 10 Common Struggles for Adult Children of Alcoholic put together by Sharon Martin LCSW.  I find a lot of these traits not just in children of alcoholics but in anyone who had an out of balance family growing up. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/larry-quicksall/message
