At the heart of this book lies a simple but profoundly useful insight: most people trying to undergo some kind of personal change are not prepared for the discomfort present at the beginning of the process of change. Such discomfort sometimes causes them to sabotage their own efforts. This book makes the most of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques to help the reader deal with that discomfort - and go on to make the changes they seek.
This book is written for those who wish to take a step by step approach in identifying:
i) what they want to achieve
ii) their unhealthy goal-sabotaging beliefs, thoughts, actions and emotions
iii) healthy alternatives to the above
iv) how to go about mediating this change
v) strategies and techniques to help them focus on their goal whilst tolerating the discomfort and learning to stretch their comfort zone
vi) the obstacles that appear during the process of goal achievement and how to overcome them
