A behavior is something you can do right now or at another specific point in time. - B. J. Fogg

If you can remove the vector of fear, then hope will predominate, and your overall motivation level will be higher, which may move you above the Action Line — and you do the behavior.

Teach others or be a role model to galvanize your new identity. A social role is powerful.

Good feelings spur the production of a neurotransmitter (a chemical messenger in the brain) called dopamine that controls the brain’s “reward system” and helps us remember what behavior led to feeling good so we will do it again. With the help of dopamine, the brain encodes the cause-and-effect relationship, and this creates expectations for the future.
