Self-Control is Not the Secret to Habit Change


Listen Later

If you’ve been trying unsuccessfully to change the same habit for more than 2 months this episode is for you. Let’s do a deeper dive into the outdated advice to have more self-control when it comes to healthy habits. 

 

You don’t want to miss:

 

  • The reason focusing on self-control is ineffective
  • A gross analogy for relying on self-control to change your habits
  • My advice for where to put your energy instead of focusing on self-control. 

 

PLUS, a special invitation for my therapist listeners who want to break past the income and impact ceiling of traditional 1-to-1 client work.
