So what's the reframe?


It's the magical gift that we human beings have that allows us to reframe almost any situation in a more positive, more helpful way.

So much of our experience in life is determined by the way we interpret the things that happen and by the stories we tell ourselves. Often we can change an entire experience by changing how we interpret it, by simply reframing it, telling the story to ourselves with a more positive interpretation.


How can you use reframing, acceptance, and serenity to deal with the ups and downs of creating the life you dream of? Listen to this episode to find out.

Are you buying into any of these myths? If so, you may be stuck! In today's episode, you'll learn why knowing doesn’t always lead to doing, why consistency is better than intensity, and why you really do need to be careful about who you let influence you.

With the first myth, believing that knowing will equate to doing, we spend our time gathering all of the information on why we need to change then wonder why we know what we should do, but we still don't do it. We all know the statistics on smoking, eating junk food, and not exercising, for example. But millions of Americans still smoke, still eat junk food, and still choose the couch over the treadmill most days. Knowing, in other words, does not automatically lead to doing, so if you want to change, you need to do more than just learn all of the reasons you need to change. 

The second myth is that, when it comes to change, we have to go all in or not at all. The reality is that an all or nothing attitude is a direct path to burnout. In this episode, I'll talk about a much better, much more successful approach.

And the third myth is that your change is all up to you. On one hand, it is, but on the other hand, it's important to be aware of the other influences on your behavior if you want to change it. 

Learn how to avoid buying into these 3 myths so you can finally make the change you want to make!

Want to change something in your life but don’t know where to start? I get it - change can feel so overwhelming! But it doesn’t have to.


Today we’re going to take a look at one of the BIGGEST reasons that people don’t get started making the change they want to make. 

I’m talking about this statement: “I don’t even know where to start.” 

Sound familiar? Have you ever wanted to do something but felt so overwhelmed that you didn't even know how to get started? 

So many people want to change something about themselves or their lives but just don’t know where to begin. They feel frustrated or unfulfilled in their current situations, but they don't know the first step to take to change them. And they’re often so afraid of doing the wrong thing that they choose instead to do nothing at all.  Of course, doing nothing just keeps them stuck - right where they don’t want to be.

Change can feel overwhelming, like there are so many moving parts, so many things to do, and so much to pull together that we don’t know what to do first.  So where do we start when we don’t know where to start? Today I’m going to tell you the first three things you need to do to get started so you can change anything in your life!

When it comes to change, are you a Relator, Director, Researcher, or Adventurer?
 
Me, I'm an Adventurer, and if you listened to episode 6, you'll hear an example or two of how that's played out in my life.

What about you?  (If you don't know your Change, click here to get it. Then come back and listen to this episode all about Change Types and why they matter.)

Your Change Type is really about how you approach change, your preferences and tendencies. It isn't carved in stone, and you might employ characteristics of other types from time to time, but your Change Type is how you are most comfortable approaching change.

So why does that matter? Knowing your change type can help you minimize the risks associated with it and leverage the strengths. For example, if you tend to jump in without doing much research, knowing that can lead you to taking a closer look at what's at stake and avoid making costly errors in judgment.

Did you know that there have been over 2,000 scientific studies conducted around how we successfully change our behavior and our lives? Don't worry - I'm not about to get all scientific on you. But I do want to share with you one of the key findings from the decades of research, and that's this:

When we change anything, we go through five stages. Each stage requires something different of us, and each stage builds on the previous stage. Skip a stage, and you set yourself up for failure.

In today's episode, I'm going to introduce you to these 5 stages: 

• the Pre-contemplation Stage
• the Contemplation Stage
• the Preparation Stage
• the Action Stage
• and the Maintenance Stage

As you listen to my explanation around each stage of change and what happens in each stage, think about a change you want or need to make, and see which stage you're in regarding that change. Understanding which stage you're in and what you need to accomplish in that stage before moving on to the next stage is one of the many keys to successfully making change.
