The Problem with Chasing Dopamine

When people don't serve, when they don't give to others, they might be consumed with dopamine, which is exciting. The problem is, dopamine is addictive because you only feel good in the moment of the achievement, when you keep needing it, which is why the drug. You only feel good when the drug is in your. In your system. And then when it's not in your system, you got to get it. Same with dopamine. I got to keep moving the goalpost. Okay, I'll feel good when I hit this goal post. Nope. Move the goalpost. I feel good if I make my second million, my third million, my fourth million. This many followers, that many followers, this many hits, that many hits, this many likes. No. You'll feel good for a second and it'll pass. And you'll have to move the goalpost again. Once you've reached your goal post, you have to say to yourself, I've won. I'm not going to move the goal posts anymore, because if I keep moving the goal posts, I'm never going to be satisfied.
