Here it is:
“On a scale of 1-to-10, with 10 representing the wife you believe I have the potential to be, what would you rank me today?”
When asking this question, there is something incredibly important to first consider. You have to create a welcoming environment for him to give his most honest response.
If you can do that, this one question may be the catalyst that takes your marriage from good to great or from great to extraordinary.
Follow-up question:
“Can you give me a list of 6 things I can do to become a better wife?”
Let me tell you, that question is golden.
Here are two things that question does: 1) It shows your husband you care enough about your marriage that no matter how great it is, you want it to be better; and 2) It causes him to think about -and appreciate- all the things you already do right.
For fun, while you’re waiting for him to give you his list of 6 things (it took my husband 2 days and a gentle reminder), try writing your own list of 12 things you think will be on his list. This exercise was a huge eye opener for me. Of the 12 things I’d included on my list, only one was actually on his. The 6 things he gave me were minor tweaks I could do easily. But what he was looking for was consistency.
