  • In this episode, I describe science-based protocols to set and achieve your goals in a way that maximizes the likelihood of reaching them. I explain how to define a priority and reach a specific goal by systematically assessing the challenge level, measurability, milestones, and action states needed to make progress from start to finish. I also explain research-supported tools to improve your performance during cognitive or physical goal work - including directed visualization, variable reward timing, and optimizing your physical environment. I also dispel common myths about goal setting and achievement. This episode provides a science-supported toolkit of zero-cost strategies for goal-setting, goal-pursuit, and goal-completion that can be applied to any physical or cognitive endeavor.

    Thanks Andrew & Team! Loved this episode. Here are my notes:
    1.Have a Priority Goal: It should be lofty enough to induce anxiety - that’s growth.
    2.Goals need to be specific, measurable, and tied to defined actions. Allocate hours per week and make them quantifiable.
    3.Print Your Goals: You can rewrite or move them every day for visibility.
    4.Avoid sharing your goals. It may lead to premature validation without actual pursuit.
    5.Determine Duration: Estimate how long it will take to achieve your goal.
    6.Set goals in 12-week or 3-month intervals. Define specific hours per week/day and on which days you’ll work.
    7.Documentation: Write with a pen or pencil.
    8.If a goal isn’t easily quantifiable, be exceptionally precise about verb actions and the time allocated per day/week.
    9.Consistency: Book writers set X words/hours per day targets. They don’t wait for inspiration.
    10.Visualization as Motivation: Before working, ask if you want the end state and if you’re willing to do what’s required. Based on the answer, visualize the positive end state or the consequences of failure.
    11.Focus: Concentrate on your goal for 30-90s before a work block. This approach calms anxiety and sharpens focus.
    12.Random Rewards: Treat yourself after reaching milestones. Use a coin flip to decide. Rewards can be social interactions or UA-cam time.
    13.The Middle Problem: If you’re struggling to progress, break tasks into 20-45m segments and approach with vigor.
    14.Peak Motivation Times: 30m, 3h, and 11h after waking.
    15.Use Time Blocks: Ensure you only work on action items for the goal within this time.
    16.Protocol Flexibility: Well-being is influenced by feelings about the day more than by measured sleep or diet. Thus, prioritize serving goals and excitement over a perfect routine.

      To you reading this Jesus can help with whatever problems, hardships, and issues you have. Believe in him He came to save us also turn from your sins repent which is changing your life to follow the way of God and not your way, your way will lead you into a pit of despair I know it, my way lead me in a pit , but Jesus rescued me and he can rescue you. He can grant a peace and joy unfelt, and be your closest friend always there, This is the gospel
      Jesus Christ, son of God, died for our sins, was buried, and rose again on the third day. After he went to his tweleve disciples and many others before ascending into heaven eternally triumphant over all his enemies and making it so that there is now no condemnation for sin to all those who believe, but only everlasting joy. John 3:16

    Soon you will have 4 millions subscribers on your UA-cam channel. Honestly, and in fact, you are so close. But I think and I dare to say that there is no amount of subscribers high and big enough for the perfect, beautiful, great, fascinating, incredible value you are to the planet Earth.
    Many people including me think that your podcast is the best on the internet. But I also think it might be the best in the history of audio. I really wish the people would consider it as I do. Although, I think they already do.
    I believe the amount of your videos and podcasts is already at least like two subjects of the university. And who knows, maybe even much more! How I wish I had also so much great quality and also quantity in my works!

    As a neuroscientist myself, I am deeply indebted to you for giving me a source of in-depth neuroscientific insight aligning with psychological literature that I can listen to while I'm getting ready or doing steady state cardio. I read so many books and research papers that the change up to having someone offer audio presentation of top-tier analysis of concepts, neural circuitry, and phenomenology is invaluable (though I know my OFC and reward circuitry values it VERY highly :D). Thanks, Andrew, and keep up the great work.

    I follow the rule of never sharing my goals with anyone unless I am already close to achieving them or have just accomplished them. Sharing my goals tends to drain my energy, irrespective of whether people are supportive or not. The same principle applied to my book; I only informed people when I was on the brink of finishing it. So many times I've shared my goals prematurely, only to eventually abandon them, and I couldn't comprehend why. This episode has provided valuable insights. Thank you.

    Andrew Huberman is perhaps one of the few content creators whose sponsorship section i don't skip. It's due to a multitude of different factors. Firstly and most importantly it's just due to actual respect to Huberman and his work. Secondly it probably comes from the fact that, although there's obviously some sort of a script, these ads just feel way more natural and less staged as opposed to many other content creators' sponsorship sections

    I like most Huberman Lab Podcasts, but I gotta say, the ones heavy in neuroscience get me drooling. I didn't figure out my big goal until last year, when I was 38. Now I know what I want to do with my life. Get my BSW, get a PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience, research ways to overhaul the American public school system to benefit marginalized children and close the achievement gap. The book The Art of Impossible by Steven Kotler kickstarted my belief that the impossible wasn't as impossible as I had originally thought. Andrew Huberman has continued to feed the belief that the brain is effing amazing and capable of so much more than we thought possible. Here's to kicking butt and taking names with neuroscience!

    I quit smoking - almost two packs a day - abusing and using any alcohol for many years now, at least 35. I did not quit both at the same time, and I claim no fame.
    The issue is I do not really know the why or how details, if someone may ask me how to reproduce it , I will not be able to answer. Family and health had a definite influence.
    Start and stop goals appear to have a complete different approach, for example I do not negotiate smoking or using alcohol but I cannot get myself to the gym as regular as I should..
    Highly commendable to listen to and act upon Andrew Huberman's advice, thank you, for example the physiological sigh - when the 'stress' thoughts arrive I bow to them and I sigh...

    I’m flabbergasted as how much of what I’ve come to understand through my pursuit of spirituality correlates directly with science. Which I’ve always been fascinated by the mind.
    Being present and aware in the here and now is indeed the key to focus. The way you explain our ability to broaden or narrowing of our visual attention is one of the examples I’ve learned through meditation and found it so helpful hearing it in your own words.
    I’m so grateful to the Universe for you Dr. Huberman. Just last night I prayed to learned how to achieve my goals, because I’ve been struggling lately.

    Dr. Huberman suggests adding randomness to the reward system by flipping a coin. Michael Easter, in The Scarcity Brain, cites that variable value of the rewards is also a factor making slot machines so addictive. To add this feature I create a numbered list. About half of those items simply say "Nice work." The others have rewards like get sushi, buy a plant, or make a donation. High value rewards are represented once while low value are represented multiple times. I use a random number generator to select a number and I get that "prize." If I fail to reach my goal, I set a timer for 2 minutes and think about my failure and how disappointed I am and what I can do to improve. Then I move on.

And this video confirmed certain things about my process and definitely schooled me in the neuroscience of the process. Thanks Again, for an informational video for the latent 🙏

    I started learning video game development about nine months ago. Anyone who knows anything about game development knows that picking just one thing to learn is a lot easier said than done. There's choosing the software and which language you want to learn. If you're working with the artwork you should get at least a basic profincey with programs such as Adobe or Krita. And so on and so on. It's been a labor of love and I definitely get dopamine spike when things are going well. When I hit those walls of frustration the only thing that keeps me coming back is that it's something I have always dreamed of doing.

    Thank you Dr. Huberman.
    Here is my summary (I used an AI tool):
    Neural Basis of Goal Setting: Understand the role of key brain structures (amygdala, basal ganglia, lateral prefrontal cortex, and orbital frontal cortex) in goal setting, motivation, and planning.
    Practical Goal-Setting Strategies:
    Select a Priority Goal: Focus on one specific goal that reflects your values and resources.
    Set Lofty Goals: Aim for challenging goals that induce discomfort to stimulate learning and growth.
    Embrace Discomfort and Frustration: Recognize that encountering difficulties is crucial for neuroplasticity and progress.
    Specific and Measurable Goals: Define goals with clear, measurable actions.
    Continuous Goal Reassessment: Regularly adjust your goals to ensure they remain challenging and relevant to your growth.
    Writing Goals on Paper: Document goals on paper for better neural engagement and clarity.
    Prioritize One Goal at a Time: Focus on achieving a single goal before moving to another for greater effectiveness.
    Debunking Myths:
    Post-It Fallacy: Regularly change the placement of visual reminders to maintain their novelty and motivational impact.
    Implementing the Strategies:
    Actionable Steps: Write down specific actions, set measurable targets, and reassess your goals periodically.
    Balancing Ambition with Realism: Choose goals that are ambitious yet attainable, and be prepared to adjust them as needed.
    By applying these neuroscience-based strategies, you can enhance your approach to setting and achieving personal and professional goals.

To ask myself, each and every decision that comes up, “is THIS what is BEST for me… at this present moment?” Is THIS decision, right now, to not exercise, to eat too much, to not pursue my art (I’m an artist), to not consider my dream list that I carefully detailed… might that not work too? Anyway, I thought about what you said. 🍃🌸🍃
