New Year, New View
2022! Can you believe we made it this far?
New year means new resolutions. It is hard enough to stick to your goals, so why not make it easier by living somewhere that makes it all that easier to achieve them!
Although living at Point of View makes achieving your goals that much easier, we know that isn’t all it takes. Check out Huberman Lab’s podcast episode “The Science of Setting and Achieving Goals” for practical tools to achieve your goal and the neuroscience to explain the brain functions to get these tools to work most effectively.
Here’s what we learned from Dr. Huberman:
Visualize the steps you would take to achieve your goal. For example, if it is going to the gym, picture yourself waking up, lacing up your shoes, and walking to the gym (isn’t it nice you can just walk there from your door?!)
Start doing any new practices to achieve your goals in the first 8 hours of your day to ensure the highest brain function. So if you wake up at 7:00, try to get in the gym before the afternoon.
Start to positively anticipate the time before you start the activity and after the activity to associate dopamine production with motivation. When you walk to the gym, start thinking positive thoughts and after your workout, consciously think good thoughts about this entire period.
