Dr. Emily Balcetis and Dr. Andrew Huberman discuss what to do and what not to do when setting goals.
Dr. Emily Balcetis, PhD, Professor of Psychology at New York University (NYU). Dr. Balcetis’ research focuses on how our perception of the world, particularly our visual perceptions, influences our level and persistence of motivation, how we conceptualize goals, actual goal achievement, and our emotional state as we pursue goals. Dr. Andrew Huberman is a tenured professor of neurobiology and ophthalmology at Stanford University School of Medicine and host of the Huberman Lab Podcast.

What Dr Balcetis said about vision boards is so true. I found myself slacking off even after articulating my goals on my boards and didn’t know why. It helped me so much to share my goals with a close group of people so that they would hold be accountable and actually push me to taking action. Thank you for teaching me more about goal setting. Eg writing down the obstacles that I would face in achieving my goals.
Truly appreciate all your efforts!!! Small victories are worth celebrating too.
Again Thank you Mr Huberman & Dr Balcetis.
This is very helpful. Thank you for sharing Dr Huberman and Dr Balcetis!!!
👍👍 two thumbs up big time. This explains why this great abyss between thinking and doing seems to be so huge for me.
Thank you so much for another insightful video. I understand now why the process I have followed and now teach works so well. I especially like the science, explained in your video, behind why vision boards can be a deterrent to accomplishing your goal if it isn't supported with other important steps. I would add that having accountability 1:1 or in community is important as well.
🌸🌸 for Dr Emily !
I really appreciate visuals. Visual Learning is my favorite. I love writing/journaling and visualizing because it allows me to tap into my creativity, using canva, pinterest, paper and pens etc. I've been calling it more of an action board! Tracking my habits, progress, pairing with other tools, like books, videos like these, and making a plan of baby steps I need to take to get to that goal. Future Dr. here applying to medical school this June!!!
"It's not the thing; it's the place it's coming from." Meaning, it's very likely that whether this or that goal-setting technique will work for an individual depends on whether they are coming from a place of inspiration or desperation. Examples of desperation: seeking validation, escapism, feelings of anger or fear, etc.

So what to do when you come from a place of desperation?

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:04 🎯 Visualizing the start line can engage motivation and trigger physiological changes for goal pursuit. 01:01 🌟 Creating vision boards or lists can help identify goals, but may not lead to effective goal achievement. 02:00 ❌ Visualizing goal accomplishment can lead to reduced systolic blood pressure, indicating decreased readiness for action. 04:20 🛑 Creating dream boards or lists might backfire, as the satisfaction of visualized goals can hinder taking necessary first steps. 06:15 ✅ Effective goal setting involves breaking down abstract goals into practical, manageable steps. 07:13 🚧 Considering obstacles and having backup plans enhances motivation by preparing for challenges ahead.

Dorothea Brande came to a very similar conclusion regarding the negative effects of goal setting and sharing. In her book "Becoming a Writer", published in 1934, she came from the same angle the cardiologist, Dr. Huberman is quoting, is coming from. When you tell others about the book you want to write, your unconscious might not be able to tell the difference between you writing the story or you telling the story. The feeling of accomplishment through projection into the future (and sharing with others) can be so satisfying that the motivation to sit down and do the job falters.
💝🌺... for Dr Emily !
I like to write a daily goal on my primary mirror 🪞 in red lipstick 💄. It wipes off easily and in my face when I wake up
Amazing stuff. I’m in dr balcetis’ lab
Since I started intermittent fasting, sauna and cold exposure plus the 3x5 protocol of Andy Galpin to gain strenght and an approrpiate supplementation with ashwaganda; I believe my testosterone increased so much that my testicles grew bigger. Is that possibile or i need to be worried? Anyway, I feel amazing! motivated, focused, strong and healthy. Thank you Andrew Huberman for your effort in spreading valuable knowledge.
TL;DR: Make a dream board, break the goals down into two-week strategies, and itemize contingency plans for anticipated obstacles.
I write my goals.. but when i write them as if im 100% already done it, sometimes adding what im gonna buy what house or what car.... i usually finish and go back all happy to light my blunt. The next day i skip all the tasks.
Great ❤
She confused systolic and diastolic. Systolic blood pressure is the top number. Diastolic pressure is the bottom number. Systolic blood pressure is the pressure in heart when the heart is pushing blood out of the aorta. Diastolic is the pressure in the heart when it is full of blood and relaxed.

Haha, I thought that too 😂
so basically be strategic in setting a goal, true that's what I've always had done in high school when preparing for graded recitation, reports and research defense what if they ask about it or what if da da da that's how I managed to build my speaking skills in at least 50 people max in a room. It's same with chess like what if they do this move then that's how you'll respond, but here's a good game polytopia (many are good with it without much strategy) but what I do is depending on my goal depends on the units I send, depending on situation often always about counter but my goal is to establish diplomacy so again another tactic. Anyways it's a good way to do
Can someone explain what Andrew meant by saying "So much for the Secret". Thanks

Dr. Huberman - you mentioned when telling someone you’re going to do something and they encourage you to do you get a dopamine hit that so high you never end up doing it because there is a sense of accomplishment. Similarly, when I start to do something to better myself, for example wake up get sunlight, be active, etc. I’ll be able to do it for a couple of weeks. Then it seems to never fail, a family member or friend will see me and make a comment noticing a change whether be in physical appearance or even attitude and i will share with them what I’ve been doing. Then all of a sudden, I stop doing all those things. If I am able to get back to doing those things, if I’m lucky, can take months. What can I do to stop this?

It's kind of odd how my personal experiences have been both in line and contradictory to what she's saying. I would look at a vision board of guys with inspiring physiques to visualize my fitness goals when it was time to workout and I was struggling to find the energy/motivation, and it would almost always inspire me to get up and get moving. It's kind of the opposite of the lowering of blood pressure that she mentions as what happens when a goal is already accomplished by looking at a vision board, compared to increasing blood pressure when you're about to take action. But it's in line with what she's saying about tying a vision board to specific action items. Personally, I wonder if the researchers are confusing correlation with causation when it comes to the whole blood pressure and vision board relationship. Seems like they're blaming vision boards for the larger issue of not defining specific actionable goals, which can come up with just about any strategy you use.

Perhaps Vision Boards, Bucket Lists, and our other checklists and any Law of Attraction/ Secret/ Hermetic manifestating efforts can STILL serve as ways to focus this vid's info on goals, to identify and align our ongoing updating self-checks and balances towards more of what we want and less of what does not serve our current and upcoming well-being and fulfillment. My take-away from the findings discussed would be to realise this info explains what "lag" in action after creating our checklists, plans, and visions is about... Then, prepare for going through that lag/ rest from the creating of those visions, TO then enacting the specific goal steps involved to get from clarifying and envisioning the goals from the point you are at with the steps including awareness of the obstacles etc of where you are at, and ahead, as you go towards where you want to shift your experiences. While I understand and personally full-well know that reliance on just vision boards and wishful bucket lists do not consistently manifest the desires of all, I DO think using the different strategies in tandem, with the understandings discussed in this video is helpful. It does not require devaluing the dreaming, scheming, envisioning, picturing and/ or listing activities, which still also engage and align different parts of our subconscious and conscious brain parts towards those goals.
Woop principle
I am not sure that her argument (study) is valid. There is a difference between frequently disciplined visualization and daydreaming. It seems that most high achievers use visualization on a daily basis and many low achievers are constantly daydreaming. How did her study differentiate one from the others? Did they studied the daydreamers? Did all the sport champions and and workers in high risk environments waste their time the last four decades?
There is no reason any who believe in the law of attraction, or the brand name 'the secret' as you said, would be offended or come after you for this. Yes, they talk about vision boards as one of the many activies in the movie, but they also say you have to act! If you only visualize the outcomes on your couch, they'll come and take your couch!
