Negative Reinforcement Is Detrimental to Success<\/h3>\n

Let\u2019s face it.\u00a0 Most of use beat ourselves up a bit when we mess up.\u00a0 Let\u2019s say your client makes a commitment to better health and goes to a party where she eats and drinks food she wanted to avoid.\u00a0 Chances are that until your next session with her, she will berate herself in some way and continue to eat poorly.\u00a0\u00a0 Depending on how frequent your coaching sessions are, a lot of ground can be lost during this time, even if it\u2019s only a week.<\/p>\n
