Best of 2017: The Neuroscience of Goals with Srini Pillay


Listen Later

Have you ever wondered how your brain functions when setting goals? How does it differentiate between the basic, more primal goals and the more complex goals we as humans can create? Srini Pillay is an expert in the “head and heart” approach to personal development, and he knows all about how the brain works and the tricks you can do to help set more attainable goals.


Dr. Srini Pillay is Assistant Professor of Psychiatry (Part-Time) at Harvard Medical School. He is known for combining “head and heart” (figuratively and literally) in an approach to personal development and goal mastery that blends science, spirituality, and horns-grabbing joie de vivre to combat the stresses faced by ambitious and high-achieving people in academia, business, and life.
