THE RELATIONSHIP REFERENCE NOTEBOOK

To remind us of what works and is needed in relationships.  And to provide us with a reference location.  For now, just put reference pieces in the notebook in logical order and preferably with some tabs.  The Table of Contents and numbering system by subject will be posted soon.

You could set this up so that you can read this portion of the website like a book, which is ordinarily easier than reading a website.  Go to the key pieces indicated for you to read first and print them out, reading them as you go.

They are designed to have you use business and planning techniques that have gotten results.  In this case, it could be argued that the results are even more important than success in business.  But few will apply the same rigor to this vitally important area.
