In fact they don't or they would gave changed. In western thought we " think " that if others " think " of the pos and neg outcomes they realize the situation --not. Not until they experience, in a deep way, the outcomes they seek to depart from and arrive at will they begin to make the switch. Solution: (re)create both pos and neg experience outcomes of related behaviors to salient goals. Create virtual experiences: role playing (alone and with someone), movie watching (vicarious acquisition of behaviors and emotions) and guided imagery. Enlist, coerce, insidiously recruit head of social hierarchies and immediate confederates. Proactive-- not reactive support groups. Structure concerns, causes, goals and strategies; journal actions, immediate and long range outcomes. Journal ANTICIPATED options, actions, immediate and long range outcomes as they happen. THIS IS THE MAIN KEY TO EVERYTHING, PROJECTION OF: CIRCUMSTANCE, OPTIONS ETC. Set reasonable goals as SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN MIND says December 2008 - January 2009 vol. 19 #6, page 49 -------------- " attempts to much to fast is doomed " SIMPLE!!! ;-) Jerry Telle Lakewood CO USA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
