Quotes by Ayelet Fishbach (?)

“If you don’t select a goal to point you in a specific direction, you’re likely to move in circles. You’ll do whatever is at the forefront of your mind, even if it contradicts other actions you might have taken just moments ago.”
― Ayelet Fishbach, Get It Done: Surprising Lessons from the Science of Motivation

“Powerful goals feel worth the price tag—they pull you toward your greatest wish. And in order to pull you, a goal has to feel more like an aspiration and less like a chore.”
