You need dopamine. It's not an option.
The question is, where are you getting it from? And how much are you getting? Are you getting too much, or not enough?
Are you getting healthy amounts of sustained pleasure from completing tasks?
Or, are you trying to solve the pain you feel or numb difficult emotions by seeking dopamine in unhealthy or excessive ways?
Are you eating a bag of chips or cookies? Doing drugs? Binging on sex, Netflix, or social media?
This mighty little neurochemical is known as the reward chemical, and it's one of four primary hormones that help us feel good and motivated.
You'll learn more about how you can decide on purpose where you'd like to get your dopamine from and do a self-check in about where you are currently getting it.
