The "Tools" in this "Toolbox" have been organized for your convenience into three different classification or index systems.  Sort of like going into a library and looking up information by either the author, title or the subject. The first Toolbox index system (Problems to Change) offers tools for specific problems you want to change or fix. The second index system (Stages of Change) is based on idea that you need different tools at different times in the change process. And the third index system (Cornerstones for  Change) is based on the idea that the most basic tools for changing behavior can be arranged like building blocks in  a "Pyramid" shape. The links in the "Toolbox" will take you to pages within this web site and on other web sites to give you access to the most pertinent and up-to-date information available. The better you understand this system the more you will get out of this "Toolbox".
