Changing to Thrive
by James O. Prochaska, PhD and Janice M. Prochaska, PhD
March Special Price: $12
About the most difficult thing for a human being to do is change; and about the most constant reality in life is change. The authors of Changing to Thrive report that a majority of people in the US think that people fail to change for 5 reasons: Lack of motivation; not enough willpower; wrong genes; not the right personality; or not enough confidence. However, through research the authors found that none of those were the number one reason most people fail when they attempt to change. As a matter of fact, the number one reason is: Most people don’t know how to change. The authors state plainly that “Our goal is to take away the threats to health and happiness and replace them with thriving.”
The process is simple, not easy, but simple. The key is to identify your current change stage. That is, are you thinking about changing, working on changing, practicing change or maintaining change? Once you’ve identified your current stage, your next move is to learn how to move from your current stage to the next. That’s the simple key that unlocks the door to ongoing and lasting change. Throughout this inspiring book you’ll learn how to change – an especially important skill once you’ve made a NO MORE declaration.
