Video Notes:
It's a well-documented and researched FACT that people who regularly set and achieve specific goals accomplish significantly more in their lives than those who do not. However, the vast majority of us will set annual goals around New Year's that will last a few weeks or even just a few days before giving, up. Well, that's because in order to succeed at setting and achieving goals, you HAVE to know how your brain works! And more specifically, know the neurobiology of goal-setting and achievement motivation! Before medical school, my undergraduate major was in Neuroscience, so I've always been fascinated by the brain, and in this video, I'm going to give you dozens of tips
"Neuroplasticity
STUDY primary visual cortex activated when blind participants perform tactile discrimination tasks such as reading Braille (Levänen & Hamdorf, 2001) pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11239...
BRAIN - Primary cortex vs somatosensory cortex
-Neuroplasticity with Goals
STUDY MS symptoms lessened when goals were set and achieved
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12795036/
Neurobiology of Goal Achievement
BRAIN - Both the amygdala and the frontal lobe then work together to push you toward the completion of the goal. The frontal lobe, which is the brain’s logical problem-solving portion, defines the goal and digests it. The amygdala, which is the brain’s emotional center, evaluates the goal for how important it is to you. The ACC then works with both to push you toward the completion of the goal. As the brain moves you into situations to help you achieve your goal, the organ changes in structure to help you optimize behaviors and tasks.
Subconscious / Subliminal Goal Pursuit -Need S
ubliminal activation of the ACTION (THE WAY)
a. STUDY - Language puzzle unconscious achievement priming pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11761...
b. STUDY - Material physical object priming! Upon entering an office, people become more competitive when there was a leather briefcase placed on the desk (13), talk more softly when looking at a library picture on the wall (14), and clean their table more when there is a vague scent of cleaning agent in the air (15) www.sciencedirect.com/science...
I’m rebuilding right now about 2-3 years now. I think I can do everything better then I was before. My work outs are making me realize I can build my character a little better in deferent crowds/situations. It’s easy to be a jerk when you can’t see what you look and sound like when your mind/health/discipline is not there. I can focus so much clearer. Things don’t bother me anymore. There so much Spiritually too I’m my soul again with control over my body/mind. Diggin your videos/knowledge💯 Happy New Year!
1:29 you know the man is focused when he didn't even stutter or acknowledge the fact that it fell 😂
Firstly…Happy New Year to you and yours!
And secondly, it’s like you read my mind! I was just thinking about setting intentions and how to go about it. It’s not that I couldn’t do them, I just have to get back into this routine that I have relaxed about just before Xmas.. so this was great to motivate me back to my workouts and goal setting! Thank you! 🙏🏽
Glad I could help! Go and kill it this year 👊
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. You are definitely doing what has been purposed for you to do. I pray this is a blessed, successful, highly favored year for you. God bless!
Thank you so much!
Thanks Doc, I will start doing the exercise today. I like that your channel also have this kind of topics and value
Im surprised more people haven't seen this video since last year.
This video helped me understand why i have accomplished things in the past and also helped me learn new things.
This has to be one of the greatest videos on change.
Thank you soooo much!! I want to listen to this and take notes, then lay the groundwork. Sharing this is so amazing and I truly appreciate your content.

Thanks John 👍 To you as well!
Thanks for the time stamps in the description- super helpful for quick reference.
PS - I subscribed. Love your approach and philosophy, and I’m looking forward to more of your content.
My pleasure friend! :D
Excellent tutorial on brain function and training. Well done!
Brilliant. Jumping out my skin to apply this practice of meditation and goal setting and achievements in my relationship foundation, particularly with my daughters. Great for the health and strength goals too Doc. 😃🙏❤
Great to hear Peter! Hope they help! 👍

Brilliant in-depth video on the effectiveness of psychology.
Thank you!
Very good video. Thank you!
My pleasure!
Much appreciated Doc. Happy New Year
Thank you man! Happy New Year!
This is truly good information. I especially appreciate the scientific/medical explanation as to why these approaches work. Could you perhaps provide an example set of phrases that you would tell yourself during meditation?
Great suggestion - I'm going to write up a blog post on my website that summarizes each of the hacks/strategies, and I'll include specific examples of how I apply them in my own life! I'll put the link in the video description once I have 👍
Very valuable video, thank you Doctor!
My pleasure bro! :D
Took me a while to have time to watch. Would really like to dive deeper and watch again. Such great info so well presented. The graphics are sooooo helpful👍🧠🧠🧠🧠
Yeah, I didn't mean to make it so long, but the principles are just so fascinating and amazing to me that I couldn't stop myself haha. Definitely worth the time - and you can use the timestamps when you review it to go back to any specific strategy you want! 👊
Happy New Year!!! Such a great video I took notes and will recomend. Starting with the notes in diff part of my house and tonight Meditation....So much great great info and motivation. Thank you so much from 1 argentina viviendo en Canada ....I will use this and recommend it. OBRIGADO!!!
My pleasure! Let me know how it goes! :D
@Dr. Gains
You are an absolute Legend!
Thanks so much!
It blows me away how the Bible is structured so that readers can be changed in every manner you presented today.
I love when science and the Bible align.
Wow, thank you for your kind words!
Love this I've been practising neuroplasticity for about 2 years to rewire my brain. PTSD and chronic pain. I've made some amazing progress but I do this have some burning pain from a stroke I had in my cerebellum. Do you have a video on rewireing the brain for chronic pain.?
I feel reborn (or better said, rewired). I'm not kidding. The notes I took during this video will also be part of my environment ;)
Thank you so much for this Dr. Kamalu/Gains
So glad to hear it! You got this!
I can personally vouch for #5. 💯
Brilliant! :D
Please make more videos on Body muscles like the on on Calf and how the muscles inside it works and best exercises to trigger it.
Those were the videos that gave a huge boost to your channel,
Also I am not saying this brain is bad, but there are already thousands of videos on CZcams about it but no one bloody explain the muscles in our body like you do with all the diagrams and visualization.
Please we don't want to lose you.
I'll add that to my to-do list! Feel free to also use the feedback / request form I put in the video description for that and any other content you'd like to see - it'll help push it up my priority list, and I can notify you when the content you requested is available 👍
How do you know if your prefrontal cortex is decreased? and my second question Does exercise improve the prefrontal cortex?
I think I may have problem with neuoroplsticity, actually I find it really hard to stay focused for minutes with the same thing, I easily get distracted and get bored as I lose my thoughts and Ideas. I dont know what behavious makes me reach this case but I really appreciate your advice and please share more about this topic with us❤❤
Can you make a video to help with neck cyphosis (dowagers hump) and nerd neck?

Bro looks like a better looking James Deen. I appreciate this brain-hacking content.
I appreciate that!
Could you please show us your alternative chest pressing exercises?
I remember saying you haven’t benched normally in years. Could you the alternatives?
Thank you, sir

I wish you were my Doctor. Where do you practice?

Dr is pretty sharp... Where does L-Dopamine play into this doc?
Please make a video for Lower Back side fat/exercise

@@DrGains Thank you for your prompt reply. Lower back-Side fat is most resilient to go and there are no proper exercises to target tht area specifically .
Your video content in so so so unique then others repetitive info...
Looking forward hoping soon
Warm Regards
Does this concept apply to goals that involve quitting habits?
Yes of.course
Absolutely!
Great content. Think of getting yourself a mic tho
Yeah, my mic stopped working a few minutes into recording without me knowing.
Yeeee yeee
yess :D
Great channel and an enormous amount of insight into many topics.
The only thing that bugs me is the tendency to stop. At. Every. Word. Some. Times.
Probably can be easily fixed.
That wouldn’t keep me from recommending your channel though. The way you incorporate and explain the knowledge of anatomy is very valuable.
Thanks for the tips!
@@DrGains Thanks for bringing such a scientific approach to weight training.
Can Someone summate this in points
Brain Hack #3 : How do we distinguish this hack from multitasking, which has been proven to actually NOT be an effective strategy for getting results?
That's a great question. The easiest way would be to have the second goal be one that can be achieved / pursued by the same actions and behaviors as the first - such as my example of one goal being getting stronger, and the second being winning a competition. Or, if not the same actions, at least actions that go well together without distracting from each other - such as my example of strength gains & better hydration. Here's a link to the study I referenced if you want to do a deeper dive: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20395509/
@@DrGains Ah i see. So multitasking isn’t always a bad thing.
🌿🌿2022🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿👍👍🏽
Happy New Year! :D
lol just show up , that's 90% of success
Thank you friend!
How come you became a doctor, you look like Hollywood star
DO YOU NOT KNOW HOW A MICROPHONE WORKS??????
