Welcome to the Change Success Personal Diagnostic

For this diagnostic, focus on a current or recent personal situation where you would have wanted to make a significant change. e.g., improve my fitness, change my relationship with a friend, boost my self-confidence, enhance my finances for a project or retirement, expand my social circle, etc. It is helpful to pick an issue that you are really dissatisfied with or want to achieve or change. It must be something that will make a difference to you.

Research shows there is only a 30% chance that a personal initiative to improve your work or private life will succeed. This low success rate is largely due to the common reliance on a ‘trial and error’ approach—leading to lost time, reduced confidence, wasted resources, and unnecessary cost.

The Mindshop Change Success Diagnostic offers a smarter, evidence-based alternative. Developed by Mindshop founder Dr. Chris Mason following an eight-year PhD study, this diagnostic tool helps you identify the key factors influencing your success in change efforts—so you can take targeted, effective action.

This model will help you:

Determine your Personal Change Potential score (with an ideal success score being 78% or higher), and

Identify which of the nine personal change success factors presents the biggest gap between your current state (NOW) and your desired state (WHERE).

Use this report as a roadmap. Focus your efforts on the areas where the biggest gaps exist to improve your overall potential for successful change.

Good luck—and here’s to a more strategic, confident path forward.
