Neuroscience of Motivation - Build positive habits effortlessly

Forget about everything you heard about how to build positive habits. You don't have to make strict schedules, make what if I fail plans, force yourself to make decisions and stay on track, feel guilty when you fail, you don't have to torture yourself. All the ingredients that you need to build positive habits are already in your brain! You just need to tap into those mechanisms and let your brain serve you!
