Ayelet Fischbach – The Science of Motivation and Strategies to Help You Achieve Your Purpose

Emotional Balance Sheet with Paul Fenner

Have you ever set a goal and wondered why is this really important to me? Or did you set an objective and lose your motivation while trying to achieve it?

I welcome back to the show Professor Ayelet Fishbach, Eric J. Gleacher Distinguished Service Professor of Behavioral Science and Marketing at the University of Chicago. Ayelet is a motivation scientist and author of Get it Done: Surprising Lessons from the Science of Motivation. Ayelet is also known as the godmother of motivation!

Ayelet sheds light on the low correlation between wealth, happiness, and success and emphasizes the importance of knowledge over sheer willpower. We discuss the role of situational awareness and the art of reframing to navigate obstacles and stay on track with your goals.

Throughout the conversation, Ayelet shares actionable strategies for reframing discomfort as growth, anticipating obstacles, and continuously refining our understanding of what drives us. Whether you're facing financial decisions or personal growth challenges, we identify strategies to help you align your goals with your life's purpose.

Please enjoy my conversation with Professor Ayelet Fishbach.
