Awards/获奖情况：“This book is a compassionate companion that helps you draw on your strengths and proceed at your own pace to unlock your capacity for change. It provides a nonjudgmental, step-by-step approach that can lead you to take brave new actions that fulfill your needs."--Nancy K. Grote, PhD, School of Social Work, University of Washington

"Plenty of self-help books offer great ideas about how to make changes, but most are missing the most obvious and important ingredient--intrinsic motivation. Decades of research have proven that if we are not internally motivated to change, all the help in the world won’t make a difference. Dr. Zuckoff provides the missing link in the world of personal growth. This book is a gem."--Joel Porter, PsyD, Clinical Director, Lives Lived Well, Brisbane, Australia; member, Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT)

"Changing our behaviors is a journey with lots of twists and turns. Including compassionate stories of people facing different challenges and problems, this book guides you to deal with ambivalence, find confidence, overcome false starts, handle well-meaning advice and nagging, and make personally meaningful decisions and plans. It provides great tools for achieving and sustaining changes in your life."--Carlo C. DiClemente, PhD, ABPP, coauthor of Changing for Good

"I am thrilled that MI is now readily accessible to all in a practical, step-by-step format. The book reminds us that the most powerful force for change resides within each of us, and uses thought-provoking exercises to unleash this power. For anyone facing a difficult decision or need for personal change, this book offers a way forward."--Sandy Downey, MS, LPC, psychotherapist, Harrisonburg, Virginia

"If you’ve ever said to yourself, ’I really want to change, but I just can’t seem to do it,’ you need to read this excellent book. Dr. Zuckoff knows that there are powerful forces within us that can sabotage our good intentions and best-laid plans. He gives you practical, scientifically grounded tools to help you understand why you’re spinning your wheels and how to productively work through it."--Henny Westra, PhD, CPsych, Department of Psychology, York University, Canada

"A lucid roadmap for those struggling to make changes in their lives, this book uses a scientifically proven approach to help you move forward from feeling stuck to creating a plan of action. Written exercises encourage reflection and self-discovery and help you explore your ambivalence, goals, and dilemmas.
