This book DOES NOT say that women are inferior to men. Far from it! It says men cannot really be fully men without taking advantage of their wives’ world-building skills.
Gold-medal winners owe their achievements to their coaches—the ones who had a vision of what their athlete could achieve, and then helped them move beyond their natural tendencies into greatness.
Athletes need a proper relationship with their coaches. Without a close relationship with the one who has the vision of what they can achieve, their athletic potential remains just that: potential, not achievement.
This book DOES say that without respecting the enormous world-building skills of his woman, a man cannot achieve his full potential. He may achieve great things, but he’ll be limping along at a much lower level of achievement than was his potential.
This book also says that without a proper coaching relationship with her husband, a woman is handicapped in her search for personal fulfillment. She may achieve great things, but she’ll be limping up to get her gold medal. Yes, a woman occasionally needs coaching from her husband. But until he has made her truly part of himself in his heart of hearts, he can’t see her well enough to advise her.
BOTTOM LINE: Whatever else a woman does, she needs to coach her husband into his own greatness so he can encourage her into her own greatness. It’s enlightened self-interest!
