Abstract

Change is a constant part of our life… It is almost a klisé. It is everywhere, and we should know, how can it happen to us, and how to act it. This article is the first part of a year-long study, that aims to find, which factors can be a part of a successful lifestyle change, especially for conscious consuption. We consume ridiculously much, way over the level, we need. Half of the world is hunger, and the other half is trying to lose some weight. If we can create a model, like an equation f.e. Two times self confidence and one part good family backgorung equals ten percent succes lifetime change, whicth is probably not, but if we can found something like that, it would change the theory of lifestyle changing in modern consuption society. This article shows our lifetslye changing model theory, and a study, which presents, it’s appearance in practise.
