Strategies for helping others with quitting decisions
The insight suggests two effective strategies for helping others with quitting decisions. Firstly, offering support and coaching from an external perspective can significantly aid in the decision-making process. Research indicates that having someone else assist with the decision leads to better outcomes. Additionally, particularly with children, it's important to help them differentiate between short-term setbacks and long-term prospects, as they may lack the ability to discern this on their own. Parents or friends can support by setting a timeframe to evaluate the situation, defining what constitutes success or failure, and helping the individual assess whether to continue or quit, ultimately preventing premature quitting as well as persisting for too long.
