This is really great information! Thank you! I would, however, recommend that someone work on the Closed Captioning for this video. Sometimes it is very accurate, but at other times it was completely off! I'm pretty sure Dr. McGonigal was not talking about Santa! I am not Deaf, but I work with Deaf people who would have a very hard time understanding this video with the current CC. Thank you!
Brings to fore the invaluable import of self-realization. From my vantage point, the realization of self, if apprehended as a prepotent state, actually absolves you of responsibility to enact willpower or other such perturbations. Because the realized self also self governs. As would be apparent, the prelude to all this is the process of actualizing self which simply is a container for all else. In other words, you will just know what is buoyantly important. - Godfrey Silas
How do you treat will power therapy differently for people working more from their Left Hemisphere of Brain than from the people working more with Right Hemisphere of Brain ?
I recently commenced from the # 1 best Rehab program in America. I am back healthy and wealthy. we spoke a lot on willpower and controlling relapse rest excersize and the willingness to change Im not a loser Im a winner Does she have a sister ?
This woman doesn't know what she is talking about, honestly she is talking crap. She doesn't know the first thing about willpower from a practical standpoint - I'm talking about the experience of having to struggle with willpower! Yes, she is a great speaker and handsome looking - but that is part of what makes me doubt her credentials: As an academically successful woman who comes from a socially privileged background - what does she now about having to face issues that are possibly detrimental to willpower? She is selling snake oil by giving us theoretical solutions for practical problems - something that doesn't compute well. I feel sorry for the poor and naive folks who expect answers for their problems from such a person.
This comment hits me home. But if you actually take a look at her other talks, everything she says or lectures are all tested and tried by laboratory experiments. Research studies where normal or average, struggling people are the sample. Its not like its a false paradigm
Ike Haze Get out of here with this hateful nonsense. If you have anything to offer that is worth anything, more power to you. If not, spare everyone with your trolling.
Ike Haze: No, this is putting a hater on check. I found Dr. McGonagal's lecture very efficient and relevant. You may call it "snake oil;" that's your prerogative. Again, if you have an alternative to Dr. McGonagal's theory, have at it. If not, take your negative rhetoric elsewhere.
Her book "the will power instinct" is amazing! I would definitely recommend it to everyone interested! Great gorgeous woman indeed!
Brilliantly said. Just one session covers so much that we should know about how to live our lives to the fullest and learn to enjoy it
Wow, she is so smart. You can tell that she knows things on a deeper level. Everything made complete sense. Great video.
Wonderful insights. Thank you Kelly McGonigal. Your expertise in the subject matter and your depth seems immense.
The way her communicate with audience is similar with Tim Ferriss. Calm and Simple
Thank you UMCSH and Kelly McGonigal for this.
I gained a lot of knowledge and important information on this video that I am certainly gonna put to use. awesome video great tips.
Wise lady she is, wise indeed.
This is really great information! Thank you!

This is an automated speech recognition based captioning system. Nobody actually did a transcript of it.
Thank you 😊
It’s very insightful and helpful👍👍👍
Just awesome Kelly!!!
Very interesting - i wonder if Kelly offers a training program for this approach?
I'm too distracted by how gorgeous this woman is.
She has got beautiful eyes and a gorgeous smile !! 😍😍😍
Michael Vincent ikr. She’s gorgeous
She winked at you at 4:03
Ah! Now that’s a huge 100% better... at least the volume is clear and I can actually see her features... 👌👌

Thanks Kelly....
How do you treat will power therapy differently for people working more from their Left Hemisphere of Brain than from the people working more with Right Hemisphere of Brain ?
Great advice
willpower is an emotion as is love and hope witch are energy I think probably so you don't run out of love or hope so why will
One of the most beautiful women I have ever seen.
nice and smart...

Does she have a sister ?
Steve Baker Yes, Kelly's sister is Jane McGonigal, a well-known game designer and author. She has a great TED Talk as well.
Well said!
thank you
the captions come up in a green line very hard to read. How do i get the words to be white and not with a color over them?
6:11 really helpful idea here
Thank you mam..
Any suggestions to overcome chronic NDPH pain ? Thanks
I just don’t understand how she keeps saying “research has shown that” without giving what and who did that research.
p000000Lverr it’s a brief interview. In her books and more formal talks she obviously includes those details
Ms mitchell is forcing me to watch this help me pls
Somebody help me
how do i use my willpower to stop buying coffee every single morning? this is draining my bank account. i cant help it
Get your own coffee machine, you might be with not will of change now and its cheaper
I wonder if she ever gets afflicted with a cold each year, or very rarely. I haven't had a cold in 3 years.. yay :)
Do people normally betray their values like this?
the universe will try to impose their will on you. maybe we run out of willpower when we try to please others.
you can't teach sleep

This is what you call a substantial contribution to a discussion?

In which way was it "efficient and relevant" to you? Care to elaborate?
