Why self-improvement programs don’t work. It’s not YOUR fault!

Monday, June 21st, 2010

…there is no one “right” method for motivating people to change.

…If you tried in the past to go after your dreams — and you failed — there’s an excellent chance that it wasn’t your fault.

You probably were using techniques that were designed for someone else.
– Barbara Sher
Live the Life You Love, 1984

Avoid one-size-fits-all programs and solutions.

They are a waste of time, money and energy.

Either a program helps you uncover your own unique mix of motivators and needs and desires and comforts and loves — and helps you leverage them — or it belongs on someone else.
