Hi: I think what Erickson did was; first he made the young man aware that he need a change in his behavior, and also recognize he could do it, and what was going to be the result.
And by not saying anything else, this sentence was clear and easy to repeat in this young mind, and to work upon it.

he used the presuppositions that:
1). ALL of the kid’s current behavior is bad
2). there is another way of behaving, which is “good”
3). the current behavior can change to the good behavior
4). the current behavior WILL change to the good behavior
5). the change will take over the course of a week
6). the kid will recognize his behavior has changed after a week has gone by
7). he’ll be surprised about his behavior changes
