    About this ebook

     Have you ever found yourself solving people's problems for them? Have you ever wished that somebody in your life could recognize the benefits of making positive changes, without feeling like you are forcing them? Or, are you genuinely inquisitive about how you can influence others to succeed in life? 

    It can be easy to immediately solve people's problems for them, particularly when we care and want the best for them. However, doing so puts an extreme amount of pressure on ourselves, and should a problem not be solved successfully, all the responsibility is on you, and the person who we solved the problem for is left unable to take accountability for their own decision-making or build their resilience skills.

    Motivational Interviewing is the answer to all of these problems. Throughout my career working within the Criminal Justice System, I have utilized motivational interviewing skills to support those I work with to consider the benefits of overcoming adversity and making positive changes. Motivational Interviewing is typically employed within professional settings, however, this book is the first to provide you with the knowledge of how to perform motivational interviewing in any context, whether that be with a family member, a friend, or anyone else who you would like to support with getting them out of the rut they find themselves in. Within this book, I provide you with all the knowledge I have learned surrounding Motivational Interviewing, with interview transcripts for you to follow, as well as exercises that you can carry out to facilitate deep and meaningful conversations.

     

    In the book "Helping Others Succeed: Motivational Interviewing" book, I will be revealing all the skills and practical guidance that you need to know to facilitate success in others in any context. Here is what you will discover:

     

    • The fundamental principles of Motivational Interviewing 
    • Transcripts of interviews to follow to have deep and meaningful conversations
    • Exercises with transcripts to carry out to challenge peoples unhelpful beliefs
    • Ways to explore where learned behaviors stem from and how to change unhelpful habits
    • The psychological underpinnings behind why people may not want to make positive changes and how to overcome these
    • How to support others achieve their goals and recognize their underlying desires
    • Ways to overcome adversity and resistance when supporting others to succeed
    • Resources to further your learning

      Introduction

      Have you ever cared for someone, or your job, so much that you take on the role of solving people's problems for them? Have you ever wished that someone you know could be independent in succeeding with their life and be truly happy? Have you ever wished that you did not have to keep telling someone that what they are doing is not helpful for them/they need to change, instead of them recognizing this themselves? I know I have, as a mother, as a friend, and the clients I support within my employment role. Not only can this pressure weigh us down, but it can also be detrimental for the person who we are molly-coddling as we are hindering their ability to develop their resilience. This is where Motivational Interviewing comes in. Motivational Interviewing is a technique that is typically used by professionals to support clients with making positive changes in their life, such as a convict to stop committing crime. However, due to the success of Motivational Interviewing in psychological literature, the interviewing technique is widely adopted in non-professional settings, too. For example, whether you use the skills to support a family member, or a friend, or someone you know that finds themselves stuck in life.  This book will guide you through the core principles of Motivational Interviewing and how to initiate positive change in others. I will talk you through practical examples of how you can coach the person to come to their realization of the benefits of making positive change, as opposed to feeling like we are forcing them. Motivational Interviewing is the key to helping others succeed, and this book will equip you with all the practical guidance required to put these skills into practice.
