Jonathan Bricker: Willingness

Today's motivation is for those who are working on self-discipline. Audio Source  More about Jonathan: Dr. Jonathan Bricker develops and tests innovative ways to help people change behaviors that affect health, such as smoking. He’s particularly interested in the delivery of interventions via platforms such as the web, smartphone apps and telephone counseling. His team conducts randomized clinical trials that compare the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy, or ACT, with traditional cognitive behavioral therapy for smoking cessation. (ACT encourages people to notice and accept their urges to smoke with the understanding that those urges will subside.) Dr. Bricker plans to expand this ACT approach to treat obesity and alcohol addiction.
