George’s Wealth Pilgrimage - Change or Die it’s as simple as that…
Today’s free lesson is all about changing your behaviour…Why is it that we humans find it so very difficult to change the way we act? Are we incredibly stupid and stubborn? Why is that nearly all heart patients who have had bypass operations fail to change their lifestyle and end up having yet another heart attack or bypass only a year or two down the track?
Wouldn’t the fear that you were going to die be enough to make you want to change? Surprisingly, research shows that the answer is “no”. Fear may be a good short term motivator, but it never works in the long run.And what about change in business? Companies such as Xerox, IBM and Apple all had major turnarounds in the 90’s. By far the hardest thing was getting the people involved in the company to change the way they thought and acted.It was obvious change was necessary, but getting people to change is incredibly hard.
Why did these companies succeed in making changes and turning things around when others did not? What was the secret to getting people to make changes? Oddly enough, the secret was twofold.
Firstly, if you want to change you need to “reframe” the way you think about your life or your business. If all you’re focusing on is “how hard it is” or “why bother?” then that’s not going to get you very far. You need a powerful reason to want to change.You need a new “frame” which says “This is why I am going to change and this what I will get by changing”.
You may or may not be surprised to learn that focusing on the rewards, the joy of changing is the perfect motivator and the perfect way to reframe your mind.And the second part of the secret was that MASSIVE CHANGE actually works better than smaller incremental changes. Heart patients who only changed their diets and lifestyle a little bit still experienced almost constant chest pain, shortness of breath and loss of vitality.But those who made MASSIVE CHANGES actually found that their chest pains disappeared, they had more energy, they felt better than they had in years.
In other words, the joy of changing and their increased wellbeing was enough reward that they wanted to maintain the changes.So, if your life needs a bit of a “tune up”, then maybe it’s time for some massive changes for you?
