    My guest today is Paul Zolman. Around age thirty-five, Paul became aware of his tendency to look for the faults in people rather than the good in them. He wanted to break the cycle of criticism he inherited from his upbringing, so he created a game to demonstrate the principles of love languages.

    It's a profound way to learn all five love languages and to give them away to others. The system is so easy that even young children can be trained in this love-giving system, and, spoiler alert: it's a game where everyone wins.

    The concept of the five love languages has been around for a while, but this is a fresh take that works with anyone in your life, which is why I’m excited for you to hear our conversation.

    Transforming Perspectives: Embracing Love Languages Through a Daily Game In this episode of 'A Joyful Rebellion,' host James interviews Paul Zolman, who at the age of 35, realized his tendency to focus on people's faults rather than their strengths. To overcome this critical mindset, Paul developed a game based on the five love languages. This innovative approach encourages individuals to give love in various forms, facilitated by rolling a dice daily to decide which love language to practice. Paul shares how this method not only changed his outlook but also introduced a paradigm shift towards positivity and love. The conversation delves into the benefits of this mindset in various contexts, from personal relationships to professional environments, and emphasizes the power of love when given freely. The discussion highlights the potential impact of teaching children this approach early on, aiming to foster empathy and better interpersonal dynamics. Paul's book, journal, and the love language dice game are available to explore these ideas further. 00:00 Introduction to Overcoming Criticism 00:48 Meet Paul Zolman: Breaking the Cycle of Criticism 01:23 Discovering the Five Love Languages 02:12 Paul's Journey to a Loving Mindset 05:39 Creating the Love Language Game 06:42 Implementing the Love Language Dice 07:38 The Impact of Love Languages on Relationships 09:01 The Role of Education and Profession 13:41 The Joyful Rebellion: Focusing on the Positive 20:12 A Photographer's Perspective on Positivity 21:37 Recognizing and Controlling Critical Thoughts 22:27 Applying Love Languages Beyond Romance 23:17 Understanding and Practicing Opposite Behaviors 24:42 Erasing Labels and Embracing Humanity 25:15 Introducing the Love Languages Book and Journal 25:59 Teaching Love Languages to Children 27:23 Adapting Love Languages in Daily Life 29:25 Therapists' Feedback and Classroom Implementation 33:34 Encouraging Empathy and Responsibility in Children 37:10 Promoting Love and Healing in Communities 40:09 Accessing Love Languages Resources 41:31 The Abundance of Love
