What is the magic ingredient that makes us 'shift'?

When e.g. someone has had the black doggy come to stay, or their behaviour is unacceptable, or they are trapped in addiction, or - simply in any way not happy or not in a good place, whether it is ourselves or others, what is it that makes people 'shift', and then actually make changes? Is it an awakening? Is it gradual? Is it an epiphany?

Haha to the last 2 posts! Funny! smile. Coincidentally, a book I am reading had a quote in it today on similar theme to my original post, and it said sometimes change is like a tsunami, and sometimes it is brought about by a soft wind.
