Introducing The Walkabout Weekly Digest podcast

Hello and happy new month... Yay! We're now onto the third month of March. 2021 was quite a year, inundated with challenges and a whole lot of things going on. But that we are now here means that we gainfully appropriated the opportunities the past 365 days presented.

The Science of Willpower


I have in recent weeks listened several times, to the following podcast:

12 Ways to Improve Your Willpower and Achieve Your Goals
  • Reflect on What's Important to You
  • Focus on One Resolution at a Time
  • Start Your Day Thinking About Your Big Picture Goals
  • Move From Habit to Conscious Action
  • Embrace Rewards, Eschew Punishment
  • Practice Your Willpower Muscle
  • Stop the Negative Self Talk
  • Lose the Time Expectations
  • Try Meditating
  • Take Your Whole Self, Cravings and All, Along for the Ride
  • Delay Gratification, If Only for 15 Minutes

Read the above highlights in detail and check out comments on the program's web page on the KQED site.
