So what is dopamine? Well dopamine is a chemical in our brain that is released when we do something pleasurable such as eating, socializing, sex etc. Now dopamine is good in controlled amounts. But when you have a dopamine over load it can cause lots of problems in your life.
The human brain is very primal and animalistic. We are cavemen at heart.
so the modern day pleasures such as social media, video games, sugar etc are still very new to us. We’ve only had the industrialized world for the last 200 years. 30,000 years ago we didn't have very much pleasurable activities or dopamine sources. So our cavemen brains tend to be overloaded and stressed when we overindulge on dopamine related activities.
Anything dopamine related can become an addiction as human are pleasure seekers. We naturally always tend to find the easiest and most comfortable path. So anything involving dopamine can become very addictive.
A lot of people think that addiction only come from things like drugs and liquor. But anything that triggers dopamine can become an addiction.
Things like social media, video games, pornography etc trigger very high levels of dopamine in your brain. Hence why were beginning to consider them addictive.
Recent studies have shown that people who consume high levels of dopamine are more likely to have higher levels of stress, anxiety and depression. Especially with younger people.
The modern day addictions such as pornography, social media, videos games and sugar are destroying people lives.
Now how does it kill your Fastlane dreams you ask. Well when you have an addiction your brain is constantly thinking about it and constantly craving it. So it’s always going to serve as a distraction. I’ve seen some people who spend upwards of 10 hours a day on video games. No joke. Or send hours scrolling though social media apps.
So how do you expect you build and work on a business when your constantly being distracted and all the modern day addictions are taking up all your time?
A dopamine detox will help you focus and concentrate better on your goals and to build a business and achieve freedom.
Now there is some self promotion here in this post. But I’d like to help anyone out who maybe dealing and having troubles kicking dopamine addiction.
I have a YouTube channel dedicated to helping people go though a dopamine detox and kick there modern day addiction.
I hope you found this post helpful and gave you a better insight on how dopamine overload destroys your life and kills your Fastlane dreams.
