In this episode of the Joy in the Journey Radio program (broadcast August 3, 2022), our host explores the tendency of LDS singles to make rules for how their lives should unfold and why following that tendency often leads to failure. He uses concepts of possibility and probability to show how LDS singles who make and hold to keeping such rules stay single longer than needful. And he doesn’t just deride the less effective. He also provides a more effective approach for extracting more joy from LDS singles life. What exactly is that more effective approach? And how does making rules for how life should unfold lead to failure?
