Which means you don’t have to take the “trial and error” approach to harness the power of ChatGPT. You don’t have to spend hours jumping from one tutorial to the next. The only road map you need to get the most out of ChatGPT is laid out in this book.

Story
It’s exhausting to live with your mind racing around from one dreadful possibility to the next, even when you know logically that a lot of these thoughts are unrealistic or at least unlikely. Logic quite often has nothing to do with it. It’s thinking that has got you into this mess, and more unhelpful thinking is simply not the answer. Unfortunately, it can be hard to stop once you get yourself into the spiral of overthinking. Your thoughts can get ahead of you, blocking you from your own mind and distracting you from what really matters.

Life changing.
I'm presently working through this workbook alone. I wished I had purchased two so my husband could have one; I believe he would gain something from participating in these activities with me. It has aided me in looking deeper within to identify certain issues I've personally been dealing with. I'm appreciative of this book.

It is great for couples
Both parts are something my spouse and I go through jointly because we both have one. Going through each segment one at a time doesn't take long because they are often fairly brief readings followed by quick activities. So far, I believe we've both gotten a lot out of it and have already developed the skills necessary to improve our communication and make our relationship run more smoothly. Strongly advised for any couple!

It was a very great method for me to set out time to be open and honest with my spouse. It is simple to fall into negative habits and ruts and disregard them. This book undoubtedly gave us the vocabulary to discuss the sensitive subjects we were avoiding and find more solid ground.

Superficial very little discussed about the principles of what discernment counseling is
I am very interested in learning more about discernment, counseling, and already have some background knowledge. Which is why I was excited to find an audiobook that I thought would delve into it more. However, this felt like a book that just summarize things that couples can do to help strengthen their marriage, not truly about the full process of what discernment counseling is And how to Contemplate whether to pursue working on their marriage or pursuing a divorce.
