What ‘good’ habits do you have?
What ‘bad’ habits do you have?
Habit = a settled tendency or usual manner of behaviour, an acquired pattern or mode of behaviour.
Routine = a regular course of procedure; habitual or mechanical performance of an established procedure.
Why is it hard to change habits or create positive new ones?
Why is it hard to change habits or create positive new ones?
• Our motivation is coming from the wrong place - we think we ‘should’ or ‘ought’ to do it versus wanting to do it.
• We get something positive from our current behaviour.
• We know what to do, but something inside us stops us.

Choosing the right time and place to…
• Talk to someone about a potentially difficult topic.
• Ask your boss for a raise.

• Have a quiet moment (e.g. of parents getting up 15 minutes before everyone else).
• Re-organising your office or desk space to improve efficiency.
BehaviourWhat?
BehaviourWhat?
We often know how to behave but something inside us holds us back…
• Are you assertive in one situation but not another?
• Are you disciplined about exercise but not food or vice versa?
• Are you confident talking to a group of strangers rather than people you know?
CompetenceHow?
CompetenceHow?
This is about what goes on in your head when you think of something:
• What do you see, hear and feel?
• Is it positive or negative?
• How does this impact on your behaviour?
Competence in action
Close your eyes relax and think about something you don’t particularly like doing … see, hear and feel whatever there is to see, hear and feel.
Now open your eyes, how do you feel?
Competence in action
Close your eyes relax and think about something you really like doing, or take yourself back to a place you really like to be … see, hear and feel whatever there is to see, hear and feel.
Now open your eyes, how do you feel?

Your spirit: What raises your spirits?
Apply this to your life…..

What might stop you from changing?
At what level in this model is the block at?
What can you do to overcome, find ways around or minimise the impact of this block?
Actions to take to overcome these blocks…
• Do activities which lift your spirit.
• Be clear about your purpose.
• Challenge and change your beliefs about yourself (your identify), about others and the situation.
• Change the pictures and messages in your head - visualise success.
• Behaviour: is it really a new behaviour to learn or something to unblock at a higher level?
• Environment: choose the right time and place.
