43 — Friday Fix: The Science-Backed Visualization Technique That Will Help You Reach Your Goals

Visualization is a powerful tool for success, but only if you use it correctly.

Some of the things I share are why vision boards don't work, how to use visualization to increase your motivation, and the one research-backed visualization strategy that helps students, athletes, and musicians reach their goals.
