Did you ever wonder why you were having difficulty implementing a change in your life? Do you wonder why some changes are easier than others?
I would propose that change is easier to implement when the three “Cs” are present:
1. Control
2. Challenge
3. Commitment
Control means that you feel that you have a say in what is happening. You are contributing to your own destiny and you are empowered.
Challenge provides a positive focus of a learning experience over a threatening experience. The feeling is that the glass is half full or not half empty.
Commitment gives you a sense of ownership and motivation. You have a stake in the outcome.
So if you feel unmotivated, are stuck or are struggling with change ask yourself if one of the “Cs” is missing. Identify it, reframe it, set an action plan in place and do it. Your success is just around the corner.
