B. J. Fogg
Proposes that a behaviour occurs only when motivation, ability and a trigger converge at the same moment, so a failed behaviour change is best diagnosed by asking which of the three was missing rather than prescribed more willpower.
Albert Bandura
Argues that a person's belief in their own capability to execute a specific behaviour, not just their skill or motivation, is what determines whether they initiate the behaviour and persist through setbacks.
