Editorial Reviews:

How many times have you thought about starting a
diet or quitting smoking without doing anything
about it? Or lapsed back into bad habits after hitting
a rough spot on the road to recovery?

To uncover the secret to successful personal change, three acclaimed psychologists studied more than 1000 people who were able to positively and permanently alter their lives without psychotherapy. They discovered that change does not depend on luck or willpower. It is a process that can be successfully managed by anyone who understands how it works. Once you determine which stage of change
you're in, you can:

  • create a climate where positive
    change can occur
  • maintain motivation
  • turn setbacks into progress
  • make your new beneficial habits
    a permanent part of your life

    This groundbreaking book offers simple self-assessments, informative case histories, and concrete examples to help clarify each stage and process. Whether your goal is to start saving money, to stop drinking, or to end other self-defeating or addictive behaviors, this revolutionary program will help you implement positive personal
    change . . . for life.

    THE NATIONAL CANCER INSTITUTE HAS
    FOUND THIS PROGRAM MORE THAN TWICE AS
    EFFECTIVE AS STANDARD PROGRAMS IN
    HELPING SMOKERS QUIT FOR 18 MONTHS.

    Summary: Great resource for professional and personal use!
    Comment: I ordered this book for a class called "Facilitating Change" I was taking as a part of my Master of Arts in Counseling program. I found it easy and enjoyable to read and extremely useful for application with clients in the counseling field and in my own personal attempts at change. I enjoyed the multitude of examples given in the book and the realistic approach that the authors took toward change. I recommend the book for professionals wishing to integrate the process of change into their practice or for individuals searching for ways to make change work in their own lives.

    Summary: Helpful for Coaching and Coach Training
    Comment: I have found this book to be helpful in coaching others. Also, I train other coaches, and I recommend this book to them, and many incorporate the framework for change described in Changing for Good in their coaching. The book presents a sophisticated model in a practically understandable and useable way. There is a balanced mix of scholarly research and personal story. I especially appreciated the section on preventing a lapse from becoming a major relapse. I have referenced this book in my book, Relationships That Work: The Power of Conscious Living Relationships that Work: The Power of Conscious Living.

    Summary: A good reference for helping yourself or someone else
    Comment: This book is a useful tool whether you are seeking to improve something in your own life or are in a situation or a career in which you are helping someone else. The six stages that the authors propose follow a logical progression, though the lines between various stages get blurred. The book is very readable and the real-life examples woven throughout add a change of pace from the psychological treatise that comprises the rest of the book. Recommended.

    Summary: Great tool for both client and counselor!
    Comment: This book explains the model of change in a straightforward and applicable manner. Contains great examples and stories relevant to change, and the material is presented in a clear and intelligent manner. It will prove to be a great tool to use in my practice.

    Summary: What a nice change!
    Comment: Unlike most self-help books out there, this one is actually based on research for a change. Based on this Phd's work on how people change, this guy has uncovered the different, predictable stages of change that people go through when they attempt to get themselves to change. Although the stages are fairly predictable, not everybody goes through them in the exact same order as some people skip various stages on their way to changing their behaviour. A great book all-in-all, it's definitely worth a look. Also liked The Sixty-Second Motivator.
