How would you motivate these people to change? I've talked to them for months, used logic, used emotion, I don't know what to do. It's really painful to see them so miserable. I used to be like that before I started PD and made some major changes in my life. How do I motivate them, or is there nothing I can do?

How I got on PD, was just too much pain - and suddenly I decided to do something about it. A little ball started rolling and soon gathered momentum. What about them? They are miserable but not to the point where I was (nearly gave up on life).

Any suggestions would be appreciated.


What I would do is have a converstaion with each of these people in my subconscious mind first. Picture yourself having the conversation with them, hear their reactions, hear what your saying, make it very vivid. At the end of the conversation see them taking the action to make the change you want for them. Then relax with confidence that it is done. The conversation will come about on it's own. Do this visulization/converstion often.
