Takes more than will power

kellylynncarrier · January 2016

As a corporate trainer I recently started teaching a class called "Change Anything" that looks at how you can change a habit with more than just "will power". Will power alone usually doesn't result in change. It takes six sources. Personal motivation (will power), Person Ability (skill, knowledge, education regarding what you want to change), Social motivation (peer pressure), Social Ability (a coach, mentor), Structural motivation (rewarding ourselves along the way and putting risks into the plan) and Structural ability (controlling your space and using cues & tools to create the change you want) <---Myfitnesspal is great for this one! For a great video that looks at these 6 sources, you can see it on youtube here:

Will power helped me lose 192#. No social motivation or social ability was needed.

Some this quality is instilled in a individual.Some need help getting to this? I come from a great family that this is instilled from the cradle to the grave. We have been small business owners of all types of service industry buissness .Sometimes depending on up bringing has Alot to DO with comprehensive understanding. I have found this in professional and personal experiences.. if YOU plan on being successful pay attention to this lesson. And teaching to those that you love!!
