Ayelet Fishbach on Getting It Done
The science of motivation and goals
What you'll learn: Ayelet Fishbach on Getting It Done — a 30-minute personal development course on Sonder.courses.
Write a book. Run a 5K. Quit smoking. Institute family dinners. Start a hobby. Develop a new skill. No matter the goal, many of us start new projects or pursuits bright-eyed, bushy-tailed, and determined to make our dreams a reality. Yet too often—as time goes on—our motivation dwindles. We get distracted or lose interest. The effort and sacrifice are too much. We give up our goals because we can't sustain that inner fire or spark that incited us to pursue them in the first place. What would you do or accomplish if you could stay motivated? Author and motivation scientist Ayelet Fishbach wants to help you achieve your greatest ambition in her book Get It Done: Surprising Lessons from the Science of Motivation. In this course, you'll learn her proven methods for changing your circumstances and mindset to maximize self-motivation.
