The contemplation stage

The contemplation stage is the phase in which a person notices a need for change but has not yet taken action. This stage is full of contradiction: on one hand there is a wish to change, on the other the comfort of the old state keeps pulling. A person often remains in this ambivalence for a long time. The coach places these two directions openly on the table and helps the client see both their reservation and their desire. When the inner conflict becomes visible, getting out of it becomes easier as well.
