What to expect
WITH A FOREWORD BY MARTINA NAVRATILOVA
When we choose to go to the gym at 6 a.m., keep running that marathon or stay up late to study, we are making conscious, value-based decisions that help us fulfil our goals. But even though we know that daily good choices add up to healthy habits and strong results, these days it's just too easy to surrender to negative thoughts and old habits. How can we not?
Enter Functional Imagery Training (FIT). Grounded in science, FIT helps us lengthen our Choice Point: that moment when we say to ourselves, 'Am I going to make the healthy decision, or am I going to choose to take an action that I know will undermine my success?' Merging mindfulness, motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioural therapy into a user-friendly model, The Choice Point grants us control of the decisions that define us.

'If you have been riddled by self-doubt, insecurity and negative thinking about your place in this world, The Choice Point will teach you how to get out of your own way' Fran Drescher, SAG-AFTRA president, actress, comedian, writer and activist
-
Science is explained with a humour and clarity that makes understanding the concept not only accessible, but enjoyable and thought-provoking ... While it was certainly exciting to experience the shifts in my own behaviours through practising FIT, it was more exciting to begin to imagine how I can apply the method to support the people I work with in achieving their goals
