How to Persuade Yourself to Do Anything

Tuesday, July 22, 2008

You know you you should. You would. You could. And yet... You can't. It's that internal dialogue, that says "Don't!!!" You don't know why but you can't. Turn can't into can.

Figure out why you can't. What are the consequences? What is the worst that could happen? If you don't know why not then, why not? Silence the voices in your head that say "NO". Tell them to"Shut up".
Concentrate on the positive outcome. If you can think of some consequences, think of how much good it could do you! Most likely the consequences are silly and unimportant. Find out why they're not important or they're not going to happen.
Read some inspirational texts. They can help greatly.
Ponder the negative results of not following through. Consequences can help you. What will happen if you don't do it? Worst case scenarios are a good visual aid. If you want to call that long lost friend, you must because if you don't you might never see them again, and you'll regret it for the rest of your life.
Act. Just do it. Don't think about it. Pick up the phone and dial that friend. Tell your obnoxious roommate to hit the road. You don't need a reason. You need results.

* If it's something irresponsible or illegal, such as murder or robbing the bank, STOP. Don't do it. If the consequences outweigh the pros, then stop.
* If you can't help thinking about things like murder or robbery, go see a therapist.
