Notes On Behaviour Change

 The best apology is changed behaviour.


Knowing is not enough, we must apply .

willing is not enough, we must do.

• Bruce Lee


Don’t believe everything you think.

Don’t get involved in other people’s drama.


It is the situations we put ourselves in that create most of our problems.


Think before you make important decisions, considering the many ramifications of your actions.


If you spend too much time thinking about an assignment, you’ll never meet your deadlines so make a start.  Build some momentum.


Experience is the child of thought, and thought is the child of action.



Behavioural Change:


We all make bad decisions: some bad decisions snowball or compound if not attended to.


People do not always change their behaviour even when they know they should and they know why they should. 


Be aware of any discrepancy between your goals, your values, and your current behaviour to stay on the path you have chosen for your life - sobriety, healthy eating and moderate exercise while reading and writing regularly.


Ackerman (1997) describes 3 types of change;

• Developmental

• Transitional

• Transformational


Behavioural change is a dynamic and repetitive process where:

1 desire and motivation are the prerequisites to change.


2 self-reflection facilitates progress and


3 social influences sway interests and support change.


Choose actions in line with your goals.  


Set priorities to make your daily decision-making easier.  


Stop, focus, proceed with purpose.
