Hi, my name is Dr. Bob Hardy, and I am a Minnesota licensed psychologist. I will be posting on my concepts for eliminating self-defeating behaviors. My doctorate is in counseling from Western Michigan University. While at W.M.U. I starting working with Dr. Milton Cudney to develop the theory to eliminate Self-Defeating Behavior (SDBs). This resulted in the publication of Self-Defeating Behaviors (Harper/Collins, 1991). The book remains in publication, and is considered the classic work on the topic. Then followed: The Self-Defeating Organization (Addison-Wesley, 1996), and You Don't Know How to Change (Amazon, 2011) I have applied my models to a wide range of individuals and organizations. From severe SDBs: prisons, Vietnam veterans, police departments, chronic pain patients, etc. To mild SDBs: 3M, Cargill, executives, professional athletes, etc. From these experiences I developed eight customized workbooks/courses: Two on lifestyle issues: Eliminating SDBs, and Beyond Calories and Exercise. Three on pain management: Chronic Pain, Arthritis, and Fibromyalgia. Three on business issues: Management Improvement, Sell Baby Sell, and Marketing Improvment.The workbook Beyond Calories and Exercise grew out of my struggles with my obesity. At one time I weighed over 300 pounds. I decided to apply my models to my weight issues, and it worked! My current weight is 165 pounds, and my body fat is 17%. I have maintained that weight loss for over ten years. These workbooks/courses are available at my website: www. Stop SDB.com. Also, at my website there is a free 5 page abstract of the theory to eliminate SDBs entitled mini workbook.
For health care professionals online continuing education credits are available on 5 of my courses at Professional Development Resources http:www.pdresources.org Eliminating SDBs, Beyond Calories and Exercise, Management Improvement, Chronic Pain, and Arthritis.
I welcome any questions you have on my eliminating SDBs models.
Thanks, Dr. Bob Hardy, L.P.
