Hi All,
This is something I've pondering recently.
Any successful person that's working towards their goals (whether it be business, fitness, relationships) etc has a period, sometimes years, where they are grinding with little to no dopamine feedback.
During this period, it's hard to stay on track and not get tempted and be distracted by things that provide short - term pleasure and are opposite of your goals. Likely all you are doing is work, working out, working again on your dreams, and then repeat with little to no times for friends, family, events, etc ...
My question is what are the mindset changes/strategies that need to be adapted in order to power through this grind period? You hear all about discipline, focus, etc but very few have the power to go through a period of time in which they are not getting short term pleasure and dopamine feedback.
I'd love to hear your guys thoughts on how you stay on track or incorporate some fun/free time while you are working hard and grinding on closing the gap between your present and your future goals.
