The Real Roots of Ambivalence
From a motivational interviewing perspective, the two roots of ambivalence are low importance and low confidence in making a change. If we don’t feel strongly that it’s important to make a change or we lack confidence in being able to take the necessary steps, chances are very high that we will waver on how to move forward. (Conversely, if we feel that a change is essential and we feel confident in being able to do it, we will likely enjoy a high degree of motivation to make the change.)
