You know {when you attend} {the fitness center} for {a few months} straight, then miss {each day} (“I’ll go tomorrow…”) …then {you wind up} skipping {another} 3 weeks?
Why do we stop doing things we {really need to} do? {Why is} us “stuck” and {just how do} we get unstuck?
Jerry Seinfeld knew why – and he knew {the trick} of momentum:
He {explained} {to obtain a} big wall calendar {which has a} whole year {using one} page and hang it on a prominent wall. {The next phase} was {to obtain a} big red magic marker.
He said {for every} day that {I really do} my task of writing, I {reach} put {a large} red X over that day. “{Following a} {couple of days} you’ll have a chain. Just {stay with it} and the chain will grow longer {each day}. You’ll like {since} chain, {particularly when} you get {a couple weeks} under your belt. Your only job next {would be to} not break the chain.”
“Don’t break the chain,” he said again for emphasis.
One {of the very most} valuable things I ever learned was {how exactly to} keep building MOMENTUM – {running a business}, in relationships, and {inside our} personal areas like {health insurance and} learning.
This {originated from} {among} my mentors, BJ Fogg, who runs the Persuasive Technology Lab at Stanford.
He taught me to always run two projects in parallel. “{This way}, if one gets stalled, {it is possible to} always switch to {another} one.”
But {this is} {one among} {the countless} things he taught me. And recently, I invited BJ {back again to} interview him about his best advice.
In particular, we {discussed} human behavior – {how it operates}, how to {change it out}, and {ways to get} un-stuck. {Consider it}: {In the event that you} master {your personal} behavior, {would you} {enjoy better paychecks}? {Become more} productive? {Have significantly more} energy {each morning}?
Answer: Yes.
How {to obtain} Unstuck
We go deep {in to the} tactics, {like the} actual words {to utilize} in emails…the phrases we use to persuade ourselves {to accomplish} something ({even though} we don’t {desire to})…and more.
In this interview, BJ Fogg and I dig deep into behavior change strategies we’ve never covered before.
You’ll learn:
- The “pre-persuasion” elements {it is possible to} embed in your environment to persuade {you to ultimately} stay focused
- Why we’re lazy – and {how exactly to} work around our inherent laziness
- Your “self-persuasion toolbox”: When {to utilize} baby steps vs. systems vs. willpower
- Why saying “It can’t hurt” {is in fact} wrong – and how failures have {a low profile} cost
- How to break apart the successes of {other folks} {and discover} winning tactics {you may use} {is likely to} life
{Need to know|Wish to know} what {each and every} top performer I’ve interviewed in Brain Trust (including CEOs, athletes, and best-selling authors) ALL {have as a common factor}? Simple. It’s habits. Successful people don’t just catch a lucky break and coast – they systematically identify and integrate winning habits {to their} lives, day in and {day trip}, for years.
