You need to expect times when your emotions will be down. You might think of doing something to distract your attention during that time your W gets ready for work.
Okay, you are making some good goals here. I see the first to are in light of you trying to make W happy. Do you realize that you can't make your W happy? Just as love is a decision....so is happiness. Nobody can make her happy, it's her personal choice. I'd say that should take a giant burden off your shoulders!

When I have the urge to sacrifice something to make W happy but deep down I know I may resent it later - I don't do it. I calmly explain why.
Why do you have to explain? Is it b/c she would be asking you to sacrifice something in order to make her happy?
Nothing wrong with what you said here, but I wanted to point out that tradionaly, this would sound as if a woman wrote it b/c we females usually feel these things and look to the H to be strong and reassure us. When you put this goal into effect...your W should feel more womanly and realize she can lean on you for your strength. Make sense?
I think you get an A+ on your goal setting!
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
