You know what you should be doing… so why do you keep doing the opposite?
If you missed my last two videos, here’s the short version:
Story → Identity → Behaviour.
The things you repeatedly tell yourself can become part of how you see yourself.
And your brain naturally tries to keep your behaviour consistent with that identity.
Which means the behaviour you’re frustrated with may actually be part of a much bigger pattern.
You tell yourself:
“I’m an emotional eater.”
Then you eat when you’re stressed.
Then you think:
“See? I really am an emotional eater.”
And the cycle gets reinforced.
This is why I don’t reduce behaviour to “you just need more discipline.”
Because if you only try to change the behaviour without understanding what is driving it, you can end up repeating the same pattern over and over again.
The behaviour is the part you can see.
The story and identity underneath it are where things get interesting.
And that’s where we’re going next.
I’ve also opened a few spots in September for a free 1:1 consultation.
If you want to look at what may actually be keeping you stuck, you can check out my website and book your spot and/or download my free resources from my website luciamuriedacoach.com
