Abstract
Are you feeling a dip in motivation for your New Year goals already?
If you’re like the 8 in 10 people who don’t achieve their New Year resolutions, some of the initial excitement might already be wearing off.
What if you – and your motivation - aren't the problem? And more importantly, what if there was a better way to set your brain up for success?
An answer lies in forming long-term habits that don’t rely on motivation to achieve your goal – with a little help from neuroscience.
