Brain Hacks for Setting Goals and Pursuing Your Dreams

 “I’m on the right path, effort is the path and you start to tap into these systems. You develop what my colleague at Stanford, Carol Dweck, coined “growth mindset.” Which is not just the belief that you can be better. Growth mindset at its core is about driving dopamine release from the effort and strain process. It’s about enjoying friction.” This from Stanford neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Huberman in his interview with Ed Mylett on the “Ed Mylett Show.” Tune in for more on how to use dopamine to achieve your goals, what prevents you from moving forward in life and the best way to reward your small successes.
