Research shows virtually all big behavioral changes. It is going to take a couple of times in order to make it. So if you try to change behavior, reach a goal, and you don't succeed the first time, that pretty much means you're human rather than you can't change. But I mean, that's pretty good news. 90 days is three months. And there are very clear things that you do as we get into persevere or persist or maintenance that make it more likely we're going to get there.
In this episode you'll learn:
- Why motivation and will power are overrated when trying to make lasting changes
- Why you must understand the 5 stages behavior change and match your activity to the proper stage
- How slips up are inevitable and are perfect opportunities to learn
- How to use conflicting energy sources -the pushing away from unwanted behavior and pulling toward a desired behavior
- Why self monitoring and tracking progress increases your chances of success
