With a focus on gradual change, we provide a blueprint to reduce cigarette consumption and integrate flexibility, like cheat meals, to ensure that these transformations are sustainable and effective.Readiness is more than just a word—it's a formula consisting of awareness, willingness, and preparedness. Tom breaks down these components, shedding light on the importance of emotional commitment and the real-world steps necessary to achieve our goals. We explore the pitfalls of primary security concerns in life and the dangers of becoming fixated on desires, using the metaphor of the "Frozen Lake" as a vivid illustration.
