Why People Don't Change
Manage episode 389563597 series 2509574
It's almost that time of year... Time to declare big changes for 2024! And then abandon those declarations in a few short weeks. I'm not trying to be negative, but the reality is: It's hard to make significant changes in ourselves. Only 3% of people stick to their big resolutions. But why? That's what we'll take a look at in this week's episode. Change is possible...and it can be much easier than you think. Key Insights
- Change happens when the pain of not changing is greater than the difficulty of making the change.
- The fear of not changing is often overshadowed by immediate gratification, making it difficult for people to prioritize long-term consequences over short-term pleasure.
- To change, you need to make the future pain of not changing more real than the current pleasure.
- People don't change unless they associate significant pain with not changing and take ownership of their ability to change.
- Some people can learn to love pain through conscious choice and association with pleasure.
- Choose activities that you enjoy to make change easier.
- Enjoy the process of pushing yourself to achieve your goals, not just the end result.
5 Steps For Real Change
- Decide what it is you want to do
- Get clear on why it's important to you
- Figure out how you're going to get to the outcome
- Associate massive pleasure to the process of getting there
- Associate massive pain to not doing the process
