【文稿】一分钟英文演讲：Decide to change now

对应文稿（文中大写的单词只表示强调，没有特殊意思）：

Those who lack discipline in any area have NOT made the end result important enough. 

Example: Mary struggled with her diet for years, she tried diet after diet, program after program, but was never able to maintain the discipline to make a lifelong change. That was, until she was told by her doctor that if she didn’t lose 50 pounds immediately she was at great risk of having a heart attack.

Having 2 kids and family and friends who loved her dearly, suddenly Mary had a powerful reason to change. Suddenly she HAD TO make it a priority. 

She was overweight before and should have made the change… but without linking that powerful reason in her conscious mind, she had no leverage to make the change and maintain the discipline. She had to link death to the unhealthy food to stop the cycle. 

When it’s life and death, MOST PEOPLE will change… but when it’s ruining your life… most people won’t change.

Don’t be most people. STOP and think about all the reasons YOU MUST CHANGE… and all the reasons you must maintain that discipline. You don’t have to wait for a life-threatening diagnosis in order to change. 

Decide to change now！
