Contemplation

Explanation:

The transtheoretical model provides a model according to which a person changes their behavior

According to this theory there are 6 stages through which a person changes their habits.

Precontemplation: The person does not intend to take any action in the near future in this stage. Contemplation: The person understands that their behavior is problematic or begins to think so and decides whether it is good for them to change their habit or not. Preparation: The person plans to take steps towards changing their behavior after becoming completely aware that their behavior is negative. Action: The person is actively taking steps in order to change their behavior. Maintenance: In this stage the person tries to sustain their action which they have taken. Termination: The person has completely loses their habit they wanted to change and do not have the will to go back to their old ways.
