Take The Spouse Test For Success

For each question, answer 1-5... with a score of 5 being the perfect SPOUSE FOR SUCCESS

1. IS YOUR SPOUSE A RISK TAKER?
If your husband or wife is willing to take risks in their life, that could be a great indicator that when business risks come up they will be uninhibited.

2. IS YOUR SPOUSE A WINGMAN?
Does your spouse show interest, knowledge, and support in social situations without being over the top, or stealing your thunder?

3. IS YOUR SPOUSE A MOMENTUM BUILDER?
Is he excited about what you’re doing even though he doesn’t share the same interest, just because you’re excited?

4. DO YOU HAVE A GOOD PHYSICAL RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR SPOUSE?
Expressions of physical love, or the physical act of sex occurring every day of the week?

5. IS YOUR SPOUSE A GOOD INTERROGATOR?
Does your spouse ask constructive questions that support solutions?

6. DOES YOUR SPOUSE GIVE COULD ‘COVER?’
Is he willing to adjust his schedule to ‘cover’ you, or assume a core responsibility that is not normally his in order to give you support?

7. DOES YOUR SPOUSE RESPECT YOUR TIME?
Does your spouse allow you to focus on your private and Work time without interrupting unnecessarily.

Scorings Your Spouse:

1 - 12 - Your Husband or wife is standing in the way of your success

13 - 24 - Your Spouse is  not holding you back, but they're not helping either!

25 - 35 - Your relationship fosters success and your spouse gives you an entrepreneurial edge!
