Info Eliminate cheap dopamine

[aguachento]

Modern men tested positive for a defficiency in pain and an excess of joy.

Ever wondered why succesful males 99% of the time find their origins in harsh environments?



An environment low in unnecessary dopamine spikes will make you extremely disciplined to reach big heights.

If you spike dopamine high, lots of times your dopamine receptors will become less receptive to this neurotransmitter.

Or in different terms: you will need more dopamine to feel the same amount of happiness/satisfaction.

If you ever want to reach a big goal, dopamine will be the most important, the neurotransmitter drives us to do very hard tasks.

After completing a hard task a lot of dopamine will be released, that's why we do hard things.

The problem is that people nowadays receive dopamine without putting in any effort whatsoever, they receive their dopamine through video games or tiktok.

To do hard things, you must stop spiking dopamine in a 'cheap' way, you must earn it through hard work.

Increase the amount of hard things in your life. To make yourself addicted to 'real' dopamine.

Personal favourites (With looks and health benefits too):

• Holding breath after exhale
• Physical activities
• Ice baths
• Throw your phone out the window

We do hard things because we are forced to/have to.

true, we'd be better off without this,

To do hard things, you must stop spiking dopamine in a 'cheap' way, you must earn it through hard work.

or just dont use the sources of cheap dopamine

Increase the amount of hard things in your life. To make yourself addicted to 'real' dopamine.

And increase your stress effectively aging you and making quality of life worse? I'll pass. I understand 'real' dopamine, but real dopamine isn't forced either. Do what you want to but try to avoid cheap dopamine is the best option.

Personal favourites (With looks and health benefits too):

• Holding breath after exhale

??

• Physical activities

Best method is socialization imo, if you have to do a physical activity to socialize with others that can be good though

• Ice baths

FUCK NO literally the worst thing you can do to your body

• Throw your phone out the window

This is legit

"Choose a life full of hardship to live a life of joy. Pursue a life of joy and you shall live a life of pain."

Maybe in modern times??? I don't see how doing things you enjoy can be bad for you in terms of longevity or health unless its an unnatural thing
