LIVING WITH PURPOSEMay 2008 Vol 4  CHANGES Action!  The time to move on your goals!  If you are in this stage of change you are ready to commit and to sacrifice some old “unprofitable behaviors” for some new “profitable” ones.   TOOLS  During this stage support from others is very important and can increase the chance for success.  Countering is also important.  This means substituting something in place of what you want to stop.  For example, if you are quitting smoking countering with exercise might be a choice.  If you are wanting to lose weight then a diversion of taking a brief walk instead of overeating.  Relaxation can also be a profitable choice.  The more you are able to substitute unhealthy for healthy the more you will increase your well-being!Rewards can be a fun effective method to include at this time as well.Remember this is a process and it takes time.  Often there are slip-ups.  That is part of change.  A coach or support group might be very helpful at this point.  QUOTES“Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place”  Zora Neale Hurston
