The most impactful part of this book that I encountered is the part that talks about the “miracle” method in therapy as opposed to the “archealogical” approach where one seeks to understand how someone got there. In the miracle approach you may be asked “if a miracle happens overnight and all of your problems are fixed, what would tomorrow look like?” In this approach there would be follow up questions asking more about what tomorrow might look like, how you would act, etc. I’ve realized that the beauty of this is when you are able to describe what your future should look like you’re better able to change appropriately.
Another impactful point in the book is to motivate by identity, not consequences. Motivating by consequences tends to go against one’s identity and that doesn’t work long term!
I recommend you Buy on Amazon!
