Are you motivated by carrots or sticks?
Do you move towards what you want - or away from what you don't want?
Are you avoiding pain - or seeking pleasure?
Well, my blog on the money you will save when you stop smoking certainly started a conversation!
Some people WILL be motivated to stop smoking to save the money - or be able to spend it on something MUCH better! They're moving towards pleasure!
Some people will be more motivated to stop smoking (or indeed spending/wasting money on fizzy pop or alcohol or sweets) when they realise how much money they've already wasted - so they're moving away from pain!
Which are you?
Or would you like to make the same comparison but using health? Are you fed up of the coughing and breathing problems? Or is it lack of energy? Or are you motivated to lengthen your life and spend more time with your family, children, grandchildren?
Which are you?
