Seven Steps to a Change Plan 7: Weighing Up Your Costs and Benefits

Posted in Techniques
This entry is part 7 of 7 in the series 7 Steps to a Change Plan

If you’ve been following through all the videos in this series, you’ll realise that I think a realistic assessment of your planned change is an important step. It helps prevent unnecessary failure. (Yes, I used the “F” word. I’d be ejected from the Relentless Positive Thinking Club, if I’d ever belonged to it.)

Let’s not mince words: Change is hard, and there’s always a cost. It’s better to look squarely at that cost up front and decide whether the prize is worth it, than leap in unprepared and experience disappointment. Of course, many changes are well worth the cost, and that’s important to know too – it helps you to push through the in-between time when you’ve started paying the cost but are yet to get the rewards.

This is the last video in the series, which comes from my free online personal change course. When you sign up, you get, as well as the videos, a personal change techniques ebook, a series of emails to take you through the videos and ebook and encourage you over the longer term, and a set of planning sheets to use in writing down your planned change.
