I’ve heard a few people recently refer to ‘Fitbit draws’.

 

That draw where things like a Fitbit have ended up when they are no longer used.

 

Things that were brought with the intention of helping the person do something.

 

Whether it be do more steps, track their workouts, monitor their food or so on.

 

Things that, initially, may have helped us do more of that thing.

 

But, over time, became a ‘bit of a nag’.

 

And stopped getting used.

 

It’s the same with the many apps out there.

 

That track and remind us of similar things.

 

Every day thousands are uninstalled after frequent early use has petered out.

 

It’s not to say these things can’t work long term.

 

I’m sure they do for some.

 

But, from our experience, if that’s the only change……..

 

They turn into the equivalent of the nagging partner over time.

 

Lasting change never comes externally.

 

It never comes from something that we’re, essentially, using to force ourselves to do something we don’t really want to.

 

It comes from questioning our beliefs, thought processes and habits.

 

From challenging the way we’ve thought about and approached things before.

 

External devices and the like have their place.

 

But only really work for any length of time when the internal is already taking us in that direction.

 

Not sure where to start with those ‘internal’ changes?

 

Talk to us about it 🙂
