He's still not ready for marriage.
Sean "Diddy" Combs, mega mogul of music and business, and his longtime girlfriend Lisa Porter became parents for the second (or actually third) time last fall to twins Jessie James and D'Lila.
Diddy says he loves being a father and is "having the time of his life."
They have another child, 10 year old Christian.
But even though Diddy claims he would "love to get married," he says he is not ready. Reason? He doesn't want to "get married and fail."
Obviously he's caught up in the same trap that most of us fall into, that there is one way and one way only to be "married."
So I decided to "call him up" and have a conversation with him.
My (imaginary) conversation with Diddy
Dr. Max: "Mr. Combs Derrick Nnadi Jersey , please do not worry about failure, that comes out of a vision of marriage that is not big enough for who you really are."
Diddy: "But I am afraid we might get divorced like so many other celebrity couples and others, and that would feel like such a failure!"
Dr. Max: "You haven't let a fear of failure stop you in any other area of life. You've been bold and strong and pioneering, even in the face of some serious criticism. What's this sudden fear about? Be bold like you have been in so many other areas of life."
Diddy: "Actually, that's right, I didn't let it stop me that others tried to put me down at all! But this seems different."
Dr. Max: "How does it seem different?"
Diddy: "Well Chris Conley Chiefs Jersey , this seems even more serious and all-or-nothing than other things I've done..."
Dr. Max "What if I told you that with your good heart, creativity, serious intention and love, it is not possible for you to fail at marriage?"
Diddy: "I would say you are losing it, Dr. Max!"
Dr. Max "Well, maybe Mitch Morse Chiefs Jersey , but not in this case. Look, you and Ms. Porter weathered a relationship storm years ago. You are back again, stronger and with a deeper love. Obviously you have some serious inner resources and both are strong! I believe that if you can bring an open heart and open mind you will be able to be married and really be happy, and never fail!"
Diddy: "I wish I could believe you. I'd really love to get married."
Dr. Max: "I'm not saying you should or ought to get married, that's up to you. But you have the seeds of a Great Marriage going here. Time's ticking. You say you would love to get married. Maybe it's time to trust the genuine personal strength of you and Ms. Porter, your passionate commitment to whatever you take on Chris Jones Chiefs Jersey , your intention and your heart to guide you."
Diddy: "Well, I don't think it would resemble most of the marriages out there, but maybe that's a good thing, since apparently most people break up."
Dr. Max: "I don't think you two would. It's just a guess, of course. But I think if you get the concept that a Great Marriage can be created on YOUR terms, in YOUR way Kareem Hunt Chiefs Jersey , and that there is no single, simple formula for Great Marriage."
Diddy: "Just like there is no single formula for great music, I see what you are saying."
Dr. Max: "Exactly! It is exactly like music. There are certain basic things, like scales in music, that need to be in place and observed, but beyond that you create your own vision of marriage Tanoh Kpassagnon Chiefs Jersey , and do it in your own way."
Diddy: "That is a much different way of seeing marriage than I've ever heard of before. I always have seen it as this perfect ideal thing that everyone tries to live up to and then eventually fails and it all falls apart."
