Dear Nigel,
You know the expression: "You can lead a horse
to
water, but you cannot make it drink".
I did not understand the full significance of this
saying until
I started leading personal development courses.
I would be confronted with someone living a life with
a significant limitation (a fear or phobia), and I would
offer a possible remedy. "Do you want to change
your life now?" The answer, not directly, but clearly
was "No!"
Many times people will even to acknowledge the
issue exists.
Statements come out like: "My life would not
really
be any better if I did fly by airplane!"
Change can only come about when the person
wants
it.
Change can only come about when a company wants
it!
Change can only also come about when a country
really wants it!
And the most dramatic change comes when the
person is most desperate for it.
Change means growing. Resisting change means
trying to stand still and stop time.

For horses at the water: Try this:-
Think of something that you want to do (i.e. want to
change)
or
if there is something that you do not want to do;
then
State it in the positive: I want to be confident
(rather than - I don't want to be anxious);
and
Ask yourself:
"What would happen if you did make that
change?"
give yourself time to fully explore the answer,
and then,
"What would happen if you didn't make that
change?"
again give yourself time to fully explore the answer
Now ask yourself:
"What wouldn't happen if you did make this
change?"
take plenty of time to find the full answer
and lastly
"What wouldn't happen if I didn't make this
change?"
