59. From Dreaming to Doing: How We Set and Achieve Goals

Why do we do what we do? What factors drive us? And how do things like competition with others help us achieve our goals?
These are the questions most interesting to Szu-chi Huang, an associate professor of marketing with a specific interest in motivation. “Competition definitely increases motivation,” says Huang. “It makes attaining the goal more valuable.”
In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Huang and host Matt Abrahams explore the intersection of human psychology, behavior, and goal attainment-and how communication connects them all.

    Great episode. You can see the motivating part at its best in the last UEFA Champions League with Real Madrid.

    I agree with you. Sometimes you fail, but that does not mean you have to give up. This is shown by ManCity in their current UEFA Champions League campaign by defeating the reigning champions Real Madrid, which knocked them out the last time.

    The title and podcast content is not fit with expectation. I have experienced with several podcast here. Please try more on naming the title to fit with content.
