The document outlines the top 10 mistakes people make when trying to change their behavior. These include relying on willpower instead of having a compelling personal reason for change, overlooking the power of priming or reminders to influence behavior, and aiming for big changes instead of making small, achievable steps. It also discusses underestimating the power of intentions, affirmations, and how the compound effect of small, repeated choices can lead to transformation over time.

we pay attention to what we are
paying attention to.
