"Effective Behaviour Modification"

​

I want to present what I believe to be the most important truth regarding behaviour modification.

​

Whether we are talking about a parent raising a child, or an individual trying to improve their own life, or an employer trying to adjust the conduct of their staff members . . . behaviour modification will be most effective, and most evergreen when the actions are based on the following transformative truth.

​

"Behaviour is never changed by addressing behaviour. Behaviour is always an extension of a core belief. If you want to change the behaviour, you must focus your energy on shifting the belief"

​

Most of the time, other people will not know your motive for why you deem a change in behaviour is necessary, nor do they need to know.

What matters, is that you understand that underneath every undesirable behaviour is a hidden core belief that gave birth to the visible behaviour.

​

As is true with so many aspects of our lives, the external is dictated by the external. If you don't like the fruit, you better start by dealing with the root.

​

Effectively 'dealing with the root' starts with these important exploratory questions;

​

• What is the actual core belief driving this undesirable behaviour?
• How did it get in the person in the first place?
• How do I present a win / win scenario to the other person so they are internally motivated to seek change?
• What 'replacement beliefs' will be necessary to ensure the perpetuity of the positive change effected?

​

I hope this helps somebody in some way today!

Until next Tuesday, have a great week!
