How to Set & Achieve Goals | Huberman Lab Essentials

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I explain how to use science-based tools to better set and achieve goals.

I discuss the neuroscience of goal pursuit and how dopamine and visual attention shape motivation and effort. I explain whether visualizing success or failure better supports goal pursuit, how to choose goals at the right level of difficulty and evaluate progress. I also share a short “space-time bridging” protocol that helps train long-range, goal-directed behavior. These tools will help you stay motivated and reach goals more effectively.
