Lesson 21: Motivation: Slide 15
Increase Your Motivation To Change By:
- Clarifying your goals:
- Develop goals that are realistic, clear
and based on a standard of behavior
that is normal and praiseworthy
- Behaviors that are acceptable and normalized among heavily drinking and drug using friends are not acceptable in the wider world of community and friends that you are attempting to enter or reenter
- Goals and feedback together help you create your own motivation for change
