Dealing with dopamine hits.
The thing about dopamine is that it isn’t in your control. You can’t expect when it will hit you. Probably that’s the reason why we say dopamine ‘hit’, because it is so unpredictable.
You can get a dopamine surge when you least want to, like before going to sleep. Before going to bed you want your mind to be calm, so that it can go easy into sleep.
But as I said, you don’t know when it hits you. You only know after it hits you. What if it hits you at the wrong time? What do you do then?
Now that it’s hit you at the wrong time. You gotta act smart and use this dopamine hit to your advantage. Like right now, I’m using an untimely hit by using the hightened state of energy to write this blog.
There are countless ways to utilize dopamine hits. You can just pick up anything you’ve been procastinating on and you’ll be surprised by how easily you complete the task immediately after getting a dopamine hit.
Don’t waste dopamine hits. They are like the nitro boost you get in a racing game. Use them right and you’ll have a higher chance of winning the race.
