“People don't change their behavior unless it makes a difference for them to do so”
— Sharon Stone
Simplified Meaning:
People only change what they do if it benefits them. Think about someone trying to lose weight. They might not start eating healthy and exercising until they really see how it can improve their life, like making them feel better or avoiding health problems. If there is no clear benefit, they probably won't put in the effort. This wisdom tells us that to influence someone’s actions, it’s important to show them how the change will help them personally. In everyday life, if you want someone to adopt a new habit, make sure they see the positive impact it will have on them. Showing the reward or the reason behind the change is crucial to motivate them.
