| 0:00.0 | Hey there. This is a podcast on change. And how do we get people to change? This is something I am really |
| 0:14.1 | fascinated with since I've been working with humans for three decades now. |
| 0:23.0 | How do we get someone to take action? |
| 0:28.4 | And if we look in the mirror, how is it that we keep saying we're going to do something, |
| 0:31.4 | like go to the gym, and then we fall down on our commitment? |
| 0:36.0 | How can we say that we're not going to masturbate and then we fall down? |
| 0:41.3 | Or we're not going to look at porn and we fall down. Or we're not going to drink and we fall down.

| 1:38.1 | I love motivational interviewing. |
| 1:41.3 | I learned motivational interviewing in graduate school and it's saved me a lot of headaches and heartaches, and I'll explain why in a moment. |
| 1:51.2 | Let me come back to the first one, just to touch on it briefly. |
