Beyond the major concept that to change behavior you’ve got to direct the Rider, motivate the Elephant,
and shape the Path, be sure to remember some of the methods that will lead to your success with those concepts.
Bright spots…
“What’s working and how can we do more of it?” Practice a method of Appreciation Inquiry.
Solutions-based…
“What’s the first small sign you’d see that would make you think the problem is gone”
“When was the last time you saw a little bit of the miracle, even just for a short time?”
Build in failure and early success celebrations…
When you’re creating a path, be sure to build in the time and encouragement failure and early successes.
Shaping the Path with checklists….
Checklists are extremely effective and help reinforce the behaviors you have deemed to be the
most valuable.
Action triggers…
Developing action triggers like assigning a specific time for a specific task will preload the decision to do
what you need to do and conserve the Rider’s self-control.
Critical moves…
To create a successful change you must translate ambiguous goals into concrete behaviors.You need to
script your critical moves. The more clear you are the less resistance you will receive.
Identities…
The question to ask yourself when you are making a change is, “How do you make it a matter of identity
rather than a matter of consequence?”
The environment will make it easier…
To maintain motivation and take the burden off of self-control and willpower, find ways to use the
environment to reinforce behaviors you want as habits.
9. Switch tells you how to change…

doing and what needs improving (competence or
commitment?)
102. 3. Commitment- agreement to improve
performance
4. Congratulations and
Continuation- emphasis what’s working
well; celebrate improvements made; or re-
emphasize more work to be done
