Its a processand much of that process happens long before we even begin to create change.
It also needs to see that the cost of staying the same outweighs the risk of creating change.
Change doesnt end just because we take action, however.
Verywell / Julie Bang
Weve all likely started a goal only to abandon it a few weeks later.
Maybe it just felt too hard to do.
Or maybe you didnt feel like the work you were putting in was effective.
It can also help increase the likelihood that the changes we make stick.
Understanding the stages of changemight also improve your relationships.
You may have wondered why they didnt take action.
Or maybe youve had a family member who insists that they just cant do something.
You may have offered advice, lectured them, or even begged them to change to no avail.
When you understand how change works, however, youll have more effective ways to support them.
