Episode notes
FOGG Behavior Model
- The FOGG Behavior Model (B=MAP) explains behavior as the convergence of motivation, ability, and a prompt.
- This model helps understand and design behavior change by adjusting these three elements.
Motivation-Ability Relationship
- Motivation and ability have a compensatory relationship in behavior change.
- If motivation is low, ability must be high (easy task), and vice-versa.
Target Specific Behaviors
- Focus on specific behaviors, not abstract goals, for effective motivation.
- Instead of "lose weight," aim for "do 20 push-ups."
