Our mind responds best to stimuli that is simple, concrete, and immediate.
If that stimuli contains a strong enough purpose, we will take action.
Example 1: Weight loss
simple, concrete, immediate: change food intake, increase exercise, increase positive self-image practice (Meditate, affirmations), good snacks when hunger calls, willpower.
Example 2: improve my PTSD
simple, concrete, immediate: focus on awareness and letting go, affirmations everyday, meditation (mindfulness) practice (nothing simpler), aerobic exercise, constant vigilance of where my mind has wandered, a focus plan for panic attacks, resilience (willpower)
If you are a coach, personal trainer, or a therapist, inspiring clients to take action is the challenge.
Change does not happen without action.
Actions overcome words, thoughts and emotions.
What purpose is important enough for you to take action?
