Hi, and thanks for this post. Since you are working on a follow up to the polarity article, the questions I'm posing right now are posted in hopes you might be able to incorporate this into your follow up polarity article.

Using the concept of polarity, how would one classify wanting to change a personal habit or trait? For instance, procrastination. If I want to change procrastination, which is a change that is inherently in the inward or outward direction, are you saying the key is to focus on why I want to change procrastination? For instance, outward direction might be: to benefit others by the information my report will contain, or inward direction might be: so that my status and perceived value to the company will increase at work?

Thanks
