Behavioral change is not automatic. It’s not like we just flip a switch and all of a sudden we’re just changed. The German word Zweifel succinctly captures the two states of mind we all contend with. Change takes repetitive work. It’s harder to see the change when it’s slow and gradual. Those around us don’t seem to notice that much or say anything about our change. However, when we encounter someone that we haven’t seen in a while before our transformation, they tell us how much we’ve changed. However, as outlined in the book The Compound Effect, it’s the small little consistent changes that turn into big changes over time.
