This week I had trouble keeping up with my behavior change for many different reasons. I believe one reason is related to the transtheoretical model. My mind set is still stuck in the preparation stage and I need to push myself past that to take action in the next stage. I know I want to get more sleep but there is many factors that push me to stay awake and sacrifice sleep still; for example, hanging out with friends at night. My benefits are still there with the cons but I’m seeing the cons as well. For example, I’m exhausted during the day and do not feel my best. I want to take action in the immediate future and plan to do better next week. One thing I’m worried about for the future is that I would relapse and would be back in the preparation
