Something valuable that I think we should talk about is the phases of change and how does they impact our lives. Change has phases, and it all starts first with contemplation, where you're observing a change you want to happen. Then you prepare yourself, then you take action, you maintain, you relax, and then you have a pre-contemplation again, because the cycle comes over and over and over again in our lives. So on the pre-contemplation, it's when we start to get curious. We explore barriers and benefits. We gather information. Take this example of going for a month abroad just to learn a language. Pre-contemplation is when you just get curious and then spark the idea of what you want to do.
