Item Description

It's time for a revolution in human change. Headlines across the world repeat despairing statistics about human decline. We seem far less capable (they report) of saving money, eating right, maintaining relationships, getting along, or getting ahead than our grandparents were just a few years ago. Why is that? Is there something wrong with human beings?

Of course not. Social scientists know that the problem is not that people have changed. The world has changed. A whole host of influences shape our behavior all the time--and if we're blind to them, we become their victims rather than their masters. It's time this changed. It's time we learned how to change our world by changing ourselves.

Most of us are just a habit away from greater success, wealth, health, happiness or relationships. While it would be nice if the boss at work or the bank account balance just changed on its own, in our heart of hearts we know that the surest way forward is to change ourselves. But how? We know from past experience that changing habits is hard. In fact, one of our studies shows that fewer than one in twenty of us makes any kind of progress when we set out on our grand plans to change our lives.

That's where Change Anything, a public 1-Day workshop comes in. Sixty years of social science research shows that change doesn't have to be that hard. And success at change doesn't have to be so unlikely.

Workshops are 1 day in length and are held in Chicago, usually 1 workshop per quarter.  To find out more visit changeanything.com.
