A simple yet powerful shift to help you move from "I should drink less" to "I want to drink less."
The issue with behavior-based goals is that they often make "not drinking" feel like an imposed obligation.It's advice that many drinkers have received as they advance in their drinking careers. As alcohol starts to cause more and more issues in one's life, well-intentioned family and friends begin to suggest that one should work on"
If you want to change how you drink, you may even have set a few of these goals yourself. They may sound like:"I will stop after two drinks,""I will only drink over the weekend," or"I will never drink again."I call these behavior-based goals, which aim to achieve certain behavioral outcomes.
No wonder, when I ask new clients about their goals, nine out of 10 times, their answer is behavior-based, such as moderation, abstinence, or anything in between.However, there's one problem with behavior-based goals: they often feel like imposed rules. You know you should do it, but you don't always want to do it.
Humans are emotionally driven creatures. We go to work each morning to feel secure, exercise regularly to feel strong, and plan vacations every year to feel relaxed. Behind each behavior is an emotional drive, a feeling we wish to achieve.
