I had a great advice when I was in college…. “Don’t study for the good grades, but learn instead. If you learn the good grade will come with no effort.”
…unless you can’t recall exact words no matter how much you learn, in which case you’ll get poor grades on exams because you’re not using the words they’re looking for, and then (hopefully) you’ll go on to choose a career that allows you to use whatever words you want - tradesperson, writer, musician, entrepreneur - so many to choose from.
I too am a neuroscientist and agree. Pianists who enjoy practicing, dancers who enjoy moving new ways, scientists and mathematicians who are obsessed with sketching formulae and ideas on whiteboards and papers and computers... drivers who drive across the country... Kids on bikes... It is the journey, not the destination, that is the reward.
@@11235but so let me get this straight...if you have trouble feeling motivated to do something...you just do the thing...and then feel motivated...If that is how it worked motivation wouldnt be needed or be a problem...you would just DO IT.
@Ripitup999 I mean you described working. You don't work because you love working. You work to get paid. Doesn't make it any easier day after day. You sure you're believing what you say my guy? Only people who talk like that are self help instructors.
@Ripitup999 I heard this idea before and it really does help. It was along the lines of how we see motivation wrong and getting past the initial point of starting and getting motivated. An example is landscaping an empty yard. If I think about the whole yard, then I'll never want to do it. Instead just break it down and set a timer for 5 mins. Not hard to motivate myself to do that. What you find is that now you've started and you WANT to keep going after that 5 mins. Essentially, just start it and you'll do it. It really has helped my procrastination.
This was profound to say the least. Don’t spike your dopamine prior to effort or after effort, but get your dopamine from effort itself. That’s literally the code to unleashing the Beast - That’s real
I remember in high school going through 2 hours of wrestling practice. At the end of a long season it was hard to get motivated for practice. For some reason I remember at certain times of the practice having these dopamine rushes that helped me get through the long grueling practice. I believe it was the effort of trying to get better and knowing that we were working harder than any other sport because the end goal for some of us was unattainable.
I've been able to move up the later in HVAC by treating it like a football game plan, HVAC is a mix of brains and brawn , just treat it like a workout. Work is the art of what your hands make.
Working in a garden that hasn't been touched in 10 years .. I'm Living what he is saying .. when comes time to plant in a few weeks I should have it ready .. Have a wonderful day ALL .. Health Harmony Peace and Love to ALL
@@paulgavian90 Thanks for an everyday application. I too am in one of the trades.I find when it seems overwhelming alot of my colleagues get frustrated and complain about every thing that goes wrong. I will say " Look at it as a challenge" and they smirk at me when I say that. I try to look at evert adverse situation as a learning experience to make me better.
Dopamine Enigma Unveiled seriously blew my mind. Learning about dopamine optimization and detox completely changed how I approach productivity and focus. Has anyone else here tried applying these techniques? The section on unlocking peak mental performance was a game-changer for me!
Absolutely perfect description of what my care was like for my wife with dementia. After the worst days, I felt more relaxed when that day was done. And on and on for 5 years. My biggest mistake was looking forward to when she would pass in the last 4 months, she passed 3/19/2023. Looking forward to her no longer suffering, me no longer suffering. The freedom that would return, the weight of 24/7 care would be gone. HUGE mistake. When she passed, I was so lost, so down. I did things that were fun only to find myself empty right after doing those things. Fun outdoor things too. I have been recovering slowly from that, and now, with your explanation, I feel so much lighter. It will be ok. I will move along with this load. The carrying of the load makes it better. The load being triggers of memories, occasional look backs at the last 5 years. Much easier to deal with now.💖
I thank you for sharing this. I have a son with a terminal genetic disease and he is getting worse… but with no clear idea if it will be in a month or 5 years. I am often in the mindset you described. Hating watching the suffering and feeling trapped, thinking about the end of all that. I appreciate you holding that mirror up for me. I am so sorry for your loss, and I wish you the best finding a new way of being now ❤
That's what many nice people can't understand. Why i don't sell my crocheted items, they describe them as very unique and that i am skilled or gifted. I make my pieces and give them away. It makes me feel happy to see the joyful reaction on the receivers' faces. But i do get a great benefit out of that, i enjoy the activity itself, sitting calming after work, with my cat, making new art. I realized that the real gift people are talking about is not the skill, but the actual enjoyment of the activity is the blessing. If i start taking orders and getting paid monetarily, i will lose a lot more, I'll lose the calming, peaceful, and enjoyment i get from creating my art and giving it away. I do understand, Dr. huberman. Thank you for the wonderful knowledge you share all the time.
Thanks for sharing, but I would say that this is also a mental exercise. In the cases we enjoy our jobs and we end up getting monetary rewards for it, we don't need to focus on the monetary rewards. That's the power of knowledge, we can change our internal dialog and how we perceive things.
We were given a blanket that had been crocheted by someone for when our daughter was born. It was a wonderful gift and 8 years later it is still our daughter’s most treasured item. People like you are wonderful
I think if you turn it into something you HAVE to do, that's when you'll hate it. But I don't think there's anything wrong with making money from something you enjoy, as a professional musician I can tell you that getting paid to make music hasn't affected my enjoyment of making or playing music. Its only enabled me to spend more time doing what I already want to do anyway. Its all about the mindset right? If you start feeling like you need to make your pieces in order to fill orders, then yeah, I can imagine that would kill any love you had for it. But if you just do what you're already doing and put them online as individual pieces without any regards to obligation beyond your own enjoyment, then you will still love it. I don't think it should be about taking orders, I think you should consider making what you make, putting it online for a reasonable price, and if it sells it sells and if it doesn't it doesn't. Don't chase the business side of it, in fact, you should ignore it as much as possible. Maybe even hand that off to someone else if you can so you can just do what you already do with the only difference being a little extra money in the bank. I'm not going to tell you you're wrong for doing this, I'm just saying, if the only reason you don't sell your stuff is because you're worried it will taint your enjoyment of it. Then I just want to let you know that that isn't necessarily going to happen unless you put pressure on yourself and only focus on the money. If that was the case, there wouldn't be any professional artists in the world. Because if you're only interested in the money and the reward, then there are much better ways of going about that than being an artist. Even if you're like Tom Cruise or someone who gets paid millions to be in a film, there are much easier and quicker ways that Tom Cruise could make money than hanging off the back of a jet and jumping across skyscrapers. He does it because he enjoys it, the money is a bonus.
I make metal products and this mindset got me this feedback: You LOVE your work. I do it is a challenge, effort and then seeing the object of beauty I create. Customers said: Do you realize that there is NO ONE in the US making such things ? Yes, I do work for money but also LOVE to create. It is said the our Creator expects us to CREATE, because he made us in his image. Not religious, but I believe that observing the Ten Commandments is a good foundation for a honest life. Local priest agrees.....
It simply traslates to Bhagavad Gita Chapter 2, Verse 47 - Focus on your work without being overly concerned about its results, and don't become inactive because of fear of failure.
Andrew Huberman’s take on finding rewards in the effort itself is such a game-changer! Learning to find pleasure in the process rather than just the result can make all the difference in staying motivated
I want a friend whom I can work with on a business, like part time, we both giving 1 to 1 and half hour only everyday. I’m from an Asian country. I guess we could share our expertises right. You have a channel on wisdom right. Let us do smth.
As a kid, I panicked when we had to do school tests. Couldn't remember a thing. A very understanding teacher told me then that she knew how much I really knew and that I should not let the bad grades get me down. She encouraged me to follow my own assessment of how well I know a subject. That defined my life. I stopped learning for grades and started to enjoy learning so much more. Yes, it was difficult, but that also was the joy of it. It became a good challenge and a reward in itself. I am close to retirement now, and I had and still have a very successful, satisfying and happy work life. I've never stopped learning, and I am looking forward to new challenges in my retirement.
It’s a pity that “education” trains kids that outside evaluation is so important, when loving the learning is so much more important. Which is why our AI teachers will evaluate how well THAT is going too. And probably do all evaluation surreptitiously so it doesn’t interfere with learning.
Sadly once you get into higher education if you don't perform well on test ...a lot of times you flunk that class and that's a lot of money to lose over a grade! The way colleges are set up is beyond ridiculous in my opinion! Too many younger people base their entire future on those grades ...getting that education!
Yes, she did. Many years later, as an adult, I returned to my old school to thank her with a huge bouquet of flowers. I caught her on her last day before her retirement. Teachers can be so much more influential than they know. @@garythompson9452
I told my kids and my students over and over again, lean what you love, then you will love learning, and one day, you won't have to work, but you will get to to and do something yoy enjoy, that's the best part, the pay cheque is a bounce.
This is so true! The feeling of being comfortable with the uncomfortable is what drives me to work out. I work out 4-5 times per week and have been doing so for many years.
Dope 😏 Thanks 🙂I struggle with COPD, walking up small hill-winded. 65 now. 2023 I pushed myself a bit more each day, extremely focused on breathing, not on my tiring pain. Now I’m able to walk 4k on the trails, in 1.5hr non-stop, with energy left over. Way better than 7 months ago 🤗 ADD BIT EACH DAY!
@@thedancingdivaofdaviestree2320 Thanks for encouragement. I’m believing it’s stamina. It’s like lifting weights. At first the weight seems too heavy, but after one week it gets easier, so you add a bit more. Heavy again, in awhile that seems easier too, so bit more. The morale here is- if you enjoy achieving these gains you can easily overcome the pain of continuing 🤗
5:00….Learning to experience the pleasure in the effort, the pain…instead of suffering through it while focus on the end goal. Change your focus to the effort & you will experience so much more pleasure (dopamine)along the way. I love it! My grandson & I were kayaking through a thunderstorm yesterday & we kept looking around at the beauty through the rain, mist above the trees… & it did let up finally, and the end was much sweeter. Now, it’s a treasured memory!❤
There's a book called Hidden Time Wealth, and it talks about how using some secret techniques, you can overcome procrastination and accomplish anything in life. It's not just a bunch of empty promises; it's the real deal.
Here’s another tip: just do one small thing as part of a large project. The next day do another small part of the project. If you’re writing a book, just do one or two paragraphs of your next chapter. That leads you on. You feel so good just having done a small thing you can’t wait to get back to it. And that leads you into doing more each time, to the finish line. Kind of like eating a small bite of chocolate every day, teasing your palate.
Years ago, while mountain biking, I was whining about how difficult a section of trail was and how I hated it. My dear friend suggested and said "don't look at it as a problem, look at it as a challenge". With that statement, he changed my life and my attitude towards most everything.
Two words I did not allow my students to use were ""easy" and "hard." Students who found work easy could frustrate those who found the work more difficult, while those who thought it was hard might simply give up. Instead, I encouraged them to look at what they faced as a challenge to overcome. For some the challenge might be greater while it was less than for others.
Watching this now was perfectly timed! I am working on a project that is requiring determination, effort, and multiple learning curves. It's been challenging, and not always fun, but I realized the other day that through this, I am becoming one of those people I've always admired. Now THAT'S a dopamine hit!
As a creative type I can relate to this. When I was a child/teenager I used to write, draw and make music purely for the joy of it, but as I got older I started focusing too much on the end goal of earning a living from my art, and then I didn't enjoy myself anymore. I want to start making art for fun again. I hope someone helped those children to enjoy drawing again after they'd finished the study, otherwise that would be a pretty unethical way to gather scientific data.
When I was a kid, I loved playing baseball. I didn't care about winning, but the other boys did. And they hated me if I wasn't trying hard enough. They took the joy out of the game---so I didn't want to play anymore. ⚾
As a fifteen year old boy, currently facing challenges in math which makes me overwhelmed. But from now on, nothing can stop me from doing what I love again. Because there is joy and excitement waiting for me to be found. I really appreciate the vedeo. Thank you 😊
I am 41 years old. I run 10 km in 38 minutes. It's painful but I don't quit running because I love it. You see! I am not lying to myself. Your message is powerful and enlightening. Thanks 👍
@@misteress8008: I train 3-4 days a week from 5km, 10km, 15km and 18km. And sometimes on treadmill upto 6km medium speed 4:20 min/km. I use Google and UA-cam to get information on how to run and train for 10km at my age. I don't have a specific dietary restrictions,but usually eat 🍝 and vegetables and fruits like Apple 🍏 and 🍌. Chicken and 🥜. Good luck! There's no gain without pain!!
@Mogos Berhane awesome. Thanks. I'm 50 and my 10km races (and 2 marathons) were long ago. 20 years ago my dream was sub 40 10k, I might have to do more research (even admit I'm the couch 🥔 now, couch to 5km might be my starting point!).
My brother was so exhausted from not doing his homework, he began holding a never-lit cigarette to feel as though he already was a scholar. Now he’s a professor.
In German we say: the way is the goal. So he literally says you should focus and tell/ convince yourself to enjoy every step of the way (positive self conditioning)
You have to enjoy the process, with no end goal in sight. When I work out, I do so simply because I enjoy doing so. I also play the guitar, and when I am practicing, I do so because I enjoy it. There is no end goal to it. When I am training with my firearms, I do so because I enjoy it. Once again, there is no end goal. I have a saying that I came up with, which is that I enjoy the valleys because I have to go through them to reach the next peak. So, I look forward to the valleys as much as I do the peaks, maybe even more.
I see a connection with what he’s saying here, and principles of mindset in childbirth I learned from Ina May Gaskin’s books. I have given birth seven times, four in hospital environments, fighting the pain, and three at home, leaning into it. It really is absolutely mind blowing how powerful the difference is.
I thought of birth too! One at the hospital that was super painful. 3 at home, of which the two last ones were pain free! Intense but no pain. Magical 🤩
I had both mine in the hospital but I embraced the pain anyway. Not only was it amazing but I can feel proud of the for the rest of my life! And great job to you, too :)
@@IntraDimensionalCrafter Yes! Embracing and owning the POWER in the pain verses trying to escape it, is the way. I personally had such terrible trust issues with the hospital setting after the first four, I didn’t trust myself to be able to stay strong in there. But I’ve met many amazing mothers who absolutely OWNED their hospital births! Praise the LORD! Good for you mama!
I gotta tell you, you have changed my thought process with this one! There is so much wisdom here! Thank you for what you do! You have a kind and generous spirit!
What's wild is that I was able to do this for exercise easily. I love working out, I love the pain, I love pushing my body to see what it can do. But I got all messed up when it comes to my creative stuff once I started trying to hit a goal. I never thought I'd have to reteach myself how to love my hobbies, but this helped reframe it so I think I can get out of the hole
I feel like recently I've been doing this subconsciously and have made more gains compared to in the past. Since covid i quit the gym and started working out at outdoor gyms and at home. My wife thinks its weird but i actually enjoy training now! I've been also training for calisthenics skills where initially the goal was to complete certain skills. In actual fact I'm now more focused on the journey rather than the destination, and i think this is key!
I’ve had a semi awareness of this for a long while and I appreciate a credentialed educator explaining this succinctly so I can get my point across to others.
The absolute rush I get from leaning into the cold water during my shower, is one of my favorite things. How I feel after the shower is just a bonus on top of that. It really is a mind-blowing thing because I hate the cold.
I don't know if this is going to be of help for anyone but I'll say what is it that keeps me motivated when I am in physical pain when doing exercising, or when I am the lab working extra hours instead of pleasantly resting at home. When I find myself doing this kind of activities that indeed require a strong mindset to maintain yourself in a position of discomfort, I actually praise myself when I realize that I am in such position. I literally tell myself when I am working out and I can barely breathe due to the intensity of the workout: 'girl, you are damn cool you are strong enough to show up and endure this instead of lying on bed' And then I feel such a rush of self-accomplishment for letting myself go out and find discomfort that it just keeps me going throughout the workout or extra work hours. It is just a feeling of proud for knowing that you are making yourself grow and enjoying the process instead of the goal that is so rewarding. Because, even when we reach our goals, do we stop growing or bettering ourselves? No. And when you fall in love with making yourself your ideal you, you stop focusing on the objective, and you instead focus on the process. That is why I you should praise yourself after every workout, not once you have achieved your ideal body. It is all about the process, guys. I hope this serves as some inspiration!
I’ve run a couple marathons quite a few years ago and can say I enjoyed the training even more than the completion. We’re conditioned because we always see people celebrating after any victory.
Same, but at the end of the training schedule I got tired of it, so that's why the marathon itself gave me a feeling of goal completed, I could start with the next goal now. Goals are also a part of progression.
This is great. Instead of saying "I'm doing this because my dopamine level will increase soon" (which is too abstract for some people) you can say "I'm doing this to improve my technique/ grow muscle / understand medieval history better" - instead of win the game/ win the fight/ ace the test. This technique was described in The Power of Double Goal Coaching and has been found in studies to massively increase performance.
v2 what you said doesnt it conflict with the information contained in the video, if doing a workout you said you can say, im doing this to grow muscle, however isnt that focus on the gold star, the reward, some end goal, my understanding was that the video was saying to link pleasure to the discomfort letting go of any thought of the outcome thus reason its being done, what your saying seems to be connecting with the outcome again which seems to contradict the video.
I've tried multiple times to work out and look bigger and have nicer muscles but I always stopped after a few weeks. I have now stuck at it the longest I've ever done (around 6 months now) because I changed mindset from working to an end goal of looking good to just feeling better, healthier in the day to day, managing anxiety etc. This is golden!
You are touching on the spiritual practice of mindfullness in physical effort.The joy of being fully immersed in the painfulness of your physical existence through ones own choices in whatever activity you are doing because it is deeply fullfilling.And the dopamine flush will come.
As a person who came from a family who was economically challenged and got the minimum as a kid, I find as a teacher kids and adults love getting rewarded for doing great work. Humans want to be acknowledged for a good job no matter if it’s a 5k or the Spelling Bee.
@@anntrope491 The dog whisperer would agree We r basically animals If u r living in an extremely cold country and enjoy the moderately heated home, try spending 1 hr in extremely hot conditions, you'll imdtly switch to survival mode and the 1hr will seem like...u guessed right...eternity Right? We're here to thrive, not merely survive The subconscious controls the body and mind(via the brain) Try faking and the subconscious will find ways to safe guard both body & mind and put you back in the comfort of mediocrity
I think it's cos we've learnt to depend upon external rewards, like the kids who drew, got gold stars then stipped drawing when the external rewards stopped. External rewards are used to manipulate us & we become dependent. I'm sad about how hard I find it to validate myself.
Makes sense. In my younger days I was at the top of my field in masonry construction. Laying heavy concrete block all day long in the hot South Florida summers is extremely strenuous work, and takes a lot out of you, but I loved it. It never bothered me that I laid twice as many block as the guy next to me who got paid the same or more than me. The rewards came later when I started my own company, but I didn't do it just for the money, it just made the most sense. By God's grace I ended up doing well, and am semi-retired, and can still do it when I need too, but I do it now because I still enjoy it, not because I need the money. It certainly makes all the struggles and problems of your job a lot easier when you do it because you enjoy it and not just for a paycheck. I never could stand working around people like that very long, they didn't last long on my job, sometimes only a few hours.
daylon what caused your self sabotage over the years? was it your focus on the end result instead of deriving pleasure from the process including when it was hard and getting feelings of accomplishment off of pushing yourself, do you think focusing on the result leads to frustration which then somehow conditions itself to the task.
Holy molly! He just described me! I don't get a kick from seeing myself accomplish a goal. I just do what I gotta do as a job that needs completion. I get it done and move on.
In my experience, ‘telling’ myself the effort is the reward does NOT work. What works is LISTENING to whatever it is inside me that is telling me how pleasurable the effort is. I don’t know what it is that’s doing that ‘talking’ but it’s different from the conscious me trying to impose my will on it and it’s not at all the reward system. It’s just a sort of listening, like ‘oh, that’s right, now I remember, this activity is a blast! (even if it’s strenuous.)’ Thank you for this video. It helped me focus my thoughts on this issue. Definitely subscribing.
I work with a martial artist who is an international champ. When interviewed, she always says that she just took the next natural/logical step at every stop along the way. She was enjoying the process, and it has made a huge difference in her performance.
Your effort in anything is always 100% owned by you. Rewards and accomplishments seldom are, and I find it sad that society uses them to manipulate us into thinking we are better than one another in some way. So... may you all find the things that bring you joy, and throw yourself into the effort of doing them for no reason other than "just because".
That’s wisdom and I’ve screenshot it for posterity (and tomorrow when I’m struggling again and have forgotten). Thank you wise and generous stranger. 🙏🏼❤️🕊️⚖️😘
Something that works for me, is saying to myself on hard workouts or whatever. Is that the when it get's hard that is why I'm training. That's exactly what I came for. And more often than not saying that in my head or out loud makes me smile.
Focusing on the process rather than the result is age-old wisdom. It allows you to enjoy life more because you are being present in every moment rather than looking towards the future.
I learned this but wasn’t able to put it in to words until I saw this. I went on a hike one weekend and did a new trail that I thought would only be slightly more challenging than I’d done before. It was a good amount more difficult than I did before. While hiking I began to wish I was done with the hike and back in my air conditioned car. I told myself “the only way back to my car is through the woods.” Then I realized that was the point of going on a hike in the first place. It made the rest of the hike enjoyable despite the difficulty.
I wise man once told me that we can convince ourselves of anything so convince yourself that the best things for you are enjoyable. The longer you do it, the more you’ll believe it.
Simply put... These are STOIC principles that teach us to create intentions, not goals. This way, you focus on the process and effort applied. You are powerful! Be Strong, Be Knowing, BELIEVE! 💪💯
Completely agree! As a highly creative person, it is always in the process, aka effort, that I find the most joy, and sense of accomplishment. The “end-goal” becomes the postcard for the experience.
"The end-goal becomes the postcard for the experience." I really liked that.. I make music as a hobby and always feel let down when nobody but me and maybe my mum listen to it (I force her). But seeing the final project like a postcard, especially fitting as it has an album Cover, makes it more rewarding and personal :)
Thank you for this excellent sharing on an essential aspect of Truth. I have learned this at a very young age. In my twenties, as a lover of the Indian philosopher J. Krishnamurti, I had learned that basing my motivation on receiving the "carrot" was more like the functioning of a donkey than that of an authentic human being. We are lucky to live during Times when all myths are debunked.
This explains a lot such as why I dread starting a project & delay until the guilt/anxiety created by my procrastination overrides the dread & negative feelings. Its as if a switch goes off & I look forward to getting the thing underway.
To whoever needs to hear it: I love you, even though I don’t know you. And I want to thank you for just being you. Now go get some sleep. You deserve a peaceful rest. You’ve fought enough today. Good night. BAM Loves YOU. 🥰 See ya next time - get better every day.
As an executive and career coach I have often advised my clients to get off outcome. This video explains biochemical reasons why this shift is such a game changer. Thanks Andrew!
joe where does visualization fit into it, you said you advised clients to get off outcomes, so where does visualization of the outcome aka law of assumption come into play, how do we harmonize these two understandings, that of getting off the outcome, and that of visualizing the outcome.
@@Samanthax1221 - Right, I don't dump outcome in terms of the long term planning and visioning processes. Long range vision and planning is very important! I think it's more a matter what's best and most helpful on a daily or moment by moment basis. We have become so hyper sensitive to getting short term results and dopamine hits that if we don't see an immediate benefit or tie to our long range goal or desired outcome it's easy to get disheartened and give up. Many of my clients find themselves in this state. The law of assumption, I think, helps us to move toward our intention. So I didn't meant to imply that either this concept or using visualization aren't valuable but rather a matter of emphasis on a daily / short term basis. Another related thought that I find very helpful is the shift James Clear recommends in Atomic Habits to focus on the identity of who he wants to be or become . This then informs the behaviors or habits THAT person would hold. It's a great way of anchoring your vision to your daily walk in life. Just by asking a question ... is this thing I am doing or considering doing something that the person I want to be , would do?
@@TitanCoachThank you for your insights on how to harmonize the understanding expressed in the video, which I feel is super valuable, and the law of assumption. Also, thank you for the additional tip of focusing on the identity of the individual I want to become. Asking the question, 'Is this thing I am doing or considering doing something the person I want to be would do?' I think it will be empowering to get all this down on paper, making it clear to myself what this individual that I want to become would and wouldn't do day to day. Making it clear to myself and reviewing that daily. I have never read 'Atomic Habits.' Thanks for this tip; it's much appreciated!
🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 🏆 Focusing solely on the end goal or reward can undermine the pleasure derived from the effort itself. 01:50 🧠 Cultivating a growth mindset involves finding pleasure in effort and striving, rather than just pursuing external rewards. 03:56 ☕ Focusing only on the end goal makes the process more painful and less efficient. 05:32 💪 In moments of intense friction, tell yourself that the pain will lead to increased dopamine release and that you're doing it because you love it. 06:29 🧬 Accessing pleasure from effort is a powerful aspect of dopamine, and it's accessible to everyone. Avoid spiking dopamine before or after effort; learn to find pleasure in the effort itself. Made with HARPA AI
onhaz not all superheros wear a cape. thankyou. i have never heard of HARPA AI i use chatgpt and claude2, thankyou for giving me another AI to play around with and thanks to you and HARPA AI for the excellent summary, i sometimes summarise videos if they are an hour or more in duration, claude2 can do this, whereas chatgpt can only summarise about 20minute videos:) i always take credit for the summaries and people think i am a genius lol i love how claude2 can spit out a summary of a 1 hour or even 3 hours video in a minute or two, truly incredible time we live in! brilliant for data gathers like me!
👍but these patches will not work in the long run _Yes, you can tell yourself that_ *_“pain” = “pleasure”, “war” = “peace”,_* _etc._ _But deceiving yourself is not profitable..._
This is helpful because a lot of my stress and anger is derived from me not getting projects such as home improvement projects, to the finish line. I look at unfinished projects or tasks that are put off either due to leisure, the inability to take time off of work, or something else coming up, as failures or in essence, rewards that I am not achieving. If I can rewire my mind to only get the dopamine while working on the project or task, it appears I can stop being so hard on myself for not being that “good little boy” who finished his work.
We do what we can with what we've got .. strive for better yes but don't get so caught up in the outcome that we lose the joy in the doing .. it the journey that counts not the destination
Great job helping me finally understand this concept. I too have tons of projects and most go unfinished. This drives me nuts!!! No more motivation, desire, energy, whatever. Probably because all i want is to get it completed so i can jump on the next, and the next, and next....i see!!! I need to start enjoying the whole process and not seeing only the good when task done!! When i was younger and just started doing home tasks and projects i was like an unstoppable human dynamo! Big family joke was dad doing his first concrete patio at 5 o'clock in the morning still in his pajamas!!@ i was so excited to do something for the first time that i couldn't sleep. Anyway thanks for sharing!!!
"Striving itself is the end-goal" wish I had learned this earlier than 21, but it has been my mindset recently and it really works. At this point I get my pleasure just from the feeling of running, studying, cleaning and organising, dealing with an unwanted problem, etc
Reminds me of an inscription on Memorial Stadium in Lincoln, Nebraska: "Not the victory but the action; Not the goal but the game; In the deed the glory."
While I am putting myself through a hard work out, I will just keep repeating to myself "I am choosing this" and "I love this". During those bouts of extreme pain or exhaustion, I will more emphatically say "I LOVE THIS" and this is AMAZING (and try to smile gleefully for extra 'pleasure impulse'). I will certainly give this a shot and make the pain experience my goal.
you said the following and i want to know how it is functioning for you, if you are getting good results with it, here is what you said: While I am putting myself through a hard work out, I will just keep repeating to myself "I am choosing this" and "I love this".

The way Hidden Time Wealth dives into the concept of productivity is mind-blowing. Hidden Time Wealth tips are pure gold, and I wish more people knew about them.
Pure enjoyment of an activity comes when you become so obsessed with it that you suddenly forget about the end goal and the world around you. When you reach a point where you stop thinking about the salary, grades or scholarship, and that pain of suffering gives you happiness, you’ve embodied the quote “the journey matters more than the destination”
The only activity I can relate this to is guitar playing. I started playing the guitar when I was 13 years old. My parents bought a nylon string acoustic guitar for me, and it was difficult to play at first. I took a guitar lesson at a high school summer class. It was really painful to press my fingers on the strings because I had soft finger tips. But I loved the sound of guitars so much, that I endured the pain and kept practicing my lessons. I think I was able to press on the strings hard enough to get a decent sound after about two weeks. After I got over the pain, it was much easier to play open C, E, A, G, and F chords (a lot of beginning guitar students hate to play the open F chord. I guess it's because you get a double dose of pain on your index finger.). If I practice daily, my fingertips will become hard, and the fretted strings will have a good tone. I've spent most of my teen years playing the acoustic guitar. After I graduated from high school, my parents bought an electric guitar for me. Man, that guitar was so easy to play compared to my acoustic! With the amplified sound, I didn't have to try so hard. I just naturally knew how to get the best tone out of the strings because of all those years of struggling with my acoustic guitar. It was like being let out of a cage.
When I was young I remember parents scorning youngsters with their guitars. In recent years I have realised the skill required, and I love to listen. I bought my first keyboard when I was seventy years old and I enjoy theory with Brian on Zombie Guitar. Playing around is fun but I doubt I shall ever reach a standard I would wish for. Just enjoy❤
OMG, I know exactly what you mean. I have only played guitar for the last 6 years probably & recently I got my son’s electric guitar… Whole new world!❤❤❤
@@booswalia become mindful of how you derive pleasure / rewards from a task. It's a lot harder than it sounds (as most things). But if you try to pay attention to it, you can slowly direct where the pleasure from a task comes from. When you run, don't hate yourself while doing it and look forward for the dopamine spike afterwards. learn to enjoy the process. It's like a new skill you need to learn, but once you do, it's a gamechanger (it has been for me)
I so needed to see this video!!! Telling yourself you “love the effort” is not necessarily a lie bcuz whatever your conscious mind tells your subconscious mind, it (the subconscious) accepts as true. Accepts as the truth! Your subconscious mind has confirmation bias and no mechanism to challenge what you tell it. Thru repetition, if you tell yourself that “effort is pleasurable” over time you’ll believe it to be true and as a result your body will produce the chemicals (dopamine) that your mind translates as pleasure🥰🥰
It is the essence of finding Joy in the Journey, the runner's high -I learned that in my prior degrees in exercise science and while actively bodybuilding, I miss that feeling of my effort in the gym. I have been applying it in my second BS in Equine Science and Management, going back to school after a 17 yrs after an Masters is challenging. I have learned so much more.
I have been looking for a way to get out of this slump. Thank you! It explains why I have almost no interest in doing the things I used to love. I am going to put this into action now!
Great video. One of my favorite quotes is from Joe Frazier: “Champions are not made in the ring, they are merely recognized there.” Learning to spike dopamine during the training the ultimately leads to the win is a brilliant way to derive enjoyment from the very thing that produces victory: hard work, discipline and dedication.
Sadhguru says similar (& he understands the neurology behind it too), he said when people work joyfully, not “hard”, they’re much more productive & healthy, and that parents don’t realize that they shouldn’t constantly “shush” their kids when laughing & playing, because that’s reprimanding them from having being joyful. He also says that no matter what you do, grown adults who have fully developed brains & are emotionally developed have the ability to choose to do whatever job or activity joyfully, not see it as “hard”, which is all about an adult’s responsibility to make their inner self in control of their mind & body, rather than living in a state of reaction where you allow things on the outside to dictate how you feel.
Thank you, this is awesome. I kind of do this already when I exercise - I do it for the feeling of doing it, and also the feeling of relaxation and lifted mood a little while after. And today I used this mindset to get through only my second day of fasting ever (first time was thirteen years ago.) I really didn't struggle at all and actually enjoyed the discipline and feeling like my body was getting something it really wanted and needed. I hope to make a weekly habit of this.
this is great advice if you're actually learning or picking up a skill. how do you motivate yourself when you're in a thankless job where your work is often taken for granted by others? perhaps one that doesn't inspire much personal growth because you're just following rules/guidelines/instructions like an automaton? how do you convince yourself that you're doing something important to keep yourself motivated? there's rewarding pain, and then there's just senseless pain - challenges that are a complete waste of time because you walk away without growing.
With working out I find this 10000% I love working out, I enjoy the process, the movement, the feeling and everything and have zero eye on the end goal. But at work, the boring tasks. It is so so much harder to find the enjoyment of the process in the most mundane tasks. Here I need more advice on the how!
I’m a mother and I’ve always said that I don’t really care about achievement. With my kids, and myself, what I care about is attitude and effort. It is ALWAYS the process, the journey, the adventure that is important to me. If you put in the effort, have a great attitude and then end up achieving something, great. But achievement alone is hollow.
It never occurred to me that a reward could interfere with the pleasure of effort. It makes an artificial reward seem like an imposter. Thank you for posting this.

I had a great advice when I was in college…. “Don’t study for the good grades, but learn instead. If you learn the good grade will come with no effort.”
I tell my students that all the time!
What is you job now- did it work?
…unless you can’t recall exact words no matter how much you learn, in which case you’ll get poor grades on exams because you’re not using the words they’re looking for, and then (hopefully) you’ll go on to choose a career that allows you to use whatever words you want - tradesperson, writer, musician, entrepreneur - so many to choose from.
@@SJ_DtL Of become very successful and make up your own words that others can then use. In life you can be a leader or a follower. Become the "they."
@@markalexander-warne3807If I study to learn and not for a good grade are you going to give me a good grade even if I didn’t learn?
I too am a neuroscientist and agree. Pianists who enjoy practicing, dancers who enjoy moving new ways, scientists and mathematicians who are obsessed with sketching formulae and ideas on whiteboards and papers and computers... drivers who drive across the country... Kids on bikes... It is the journey, not the destination, that is the reward.
I dont understand this..at all. Im nearing 30 and this makes 0 sense to me at all
@@11235but so let me get this straight...if you have trouble feeling motivated to do something...you just do the thing...and then feel motivated...If that is how it worked motivation wouldnt be needed or be a problem...you would just DO IT.
@Ripitup999 I mean you described working. You don't work because you love working. You work to get paid. Doesn't make it any easier day after day. You sure you're believing what you say my guy? Only people who talk like that are self help instructors.
@Ripitup999 I heard this idea before and it really does help. It was along the lines of how we see motivation wrong and getting past the initial point of starting and getting motivated. An example is landscaping an empty yard. If I think about the whole yard, then I'll never want to do it. Instead just break it down and set a timer for 5 mins. Not hard to motivate myself to do that. What you find is that now you've started and you WANT to keep going after that 5 mins. Essentially, just start it and you'll do it. It really has helped my procrastination.
Are you saying that professional drivers drive because they love it??
This was profound to say the least. Don’t spike your dopamine prior to effort or after effort, but get your dopamine from effort itself. That’s literally the code to unleashing the Beast - That’s real
I remember in high school going through 2 hours of wrestling practice. At the end of a long season it was hard to get motivated for practice. For some reason I remember at certain times of the practice having these dopamine rushes that helped me get through the long grueling practice. I believe it was the effort of trying to get better and knowing that we were working harder than any other sport because the end goal for some of us was unattainable.
I've been able to move up the later in HVAC by treating it like a football game plan, HVAC is a mix of brains and brawn , just treat it like a workout. Work is the art of what your hands make.

Absolutely perfect description of what my care was like for my wife with dementia. After the worst days, I felt more relaxed when that day was done. And on and on for 5 years. My biggest mistake was looking forward to when she would pass in the last 4 months, she passed 3/19/2023. Looking forward to her no longer suffering, me no longer suffering. The freedom that would return, the weight of 24/7 care would be gone. HUGE mistake. When she passed, I was so lost, so down. I did things that were fun only to find myself empty right after doing those things. Fun outdoor things too. I have been recovering slowly from that, and now, with your explanation, I feel so much lighter. It will be ok. I will move along with this load. The carrying of the load makes it better. The load being triggers of memories, occasional look backs at the last 5 years. Much easier to deal with now.💖
Im so sorry for your loss, I wish you the very best on your healing journey🙏❤️ She was profoundly lucky to have you by her side, no doubt ❤️
Best wishes for you to feel better soon.
I thank you for sharing this. I have a son with a terminal genetic disease and he is getting worse… but with no clear idea if it will be in a month or 5 years. I am often in the mindset you described. Hating watching the suffering and feeling trapped, thinking about the end of all that. I appreciate you holding that mirror up for me. I am so sorry for your loss, and I wish you the best finding a new way of being now ❤

That's what many nice people can't understand. Why i don't sell my crocheted items, they describe them as very unique and that i am skilled or gifted. I make my pieces and give them away. It makes me feel happy to see the joyful reaction on the receivers' faces. But i do get a great benefit out of that, i enjoy the activity itself, sitting calming after work, with my cat, making new art. I realized that the real gift people are talking about is not the skill, but the actual enjoyment of the activity is the blessing. If i start taking orders and getting paid monetarily, i will lose a lot more, I'll lose the calming, peaceful, and enjoyment i get from creating my art and giving it away.
I do understand, Dr. huberman.
Thank you for the wonderful knowledge you share all the time.
Thanks for sharing, but I would say that this is also a mental exercise. In the cases we enjoy our jobs and we end up getting monetary rewards for it, we don't need to focus on the monetary rewards. That's the power of knowledge, we can change our internal dialog and how we perceive things.
We were given a blanket that had been crocheted by someone for when our daughter was born. It was a wonderful gift and 8 years later it is still our daughter’s most treasured item. People like you are wonderful
I think if you turn it into something you HAVE to do, that's when you'll hate it.
But I don't think there's anything wrong with making money from something you enjoy, as a professional musician I can tell you that getting paid to make music hasn't affected my enjoyment of making or playing music. Its only enabled me to spend more time doing what I already want to do anyway. Its all about the mindset right? If you start feeling like you need to make your pieces in order to fill orders, then yeah, I can imagine that would kill any love you had for it. But if you just do what you're already doing and put them online as individual pieces without any regards to obligation beyond your own enjoyment, then you will still love it.
I don't think it should be about taking orders, I think you should consider making what you make, putting it online for a reasonable price, and if it sells it sells and if it doesn't it doesn't. Don't chase the business side of it, in fact, you should ignore it as much as possible. Maybe even hand that off to someone else if you can so you can just do what you already do with the only difference being a little extra money in the bank.
I'm not going to tell you you're wrong for doing this, I'm just saying, if the only reason you don't sell your stuff is because you're worried it will taint your enjoyment of it. Then I just want to let you know that that isn't necessarily going to happen unless you put pressure on yourself and only focus on the money. If that was the case, there wouldn't be any professional artists in the world. Because if you're only interested in the money and the reward, then there are much better ways of going about that than being an artist. Even if you're like Tom Cruise or someone who gets paid millions to be in a film, there are much easier and quicker ways that Tom Cruise could make money than hanging off the back of a jet and jumping across skyscrapers. He does it because he enjoys it, the money is a bonus.
I make metal products and this mindset got me this feedback: You LOVE your work. I do it is a challenge, effort and then seeing the object of beauty I create. Customers said: Do you realize that there is NO ONE in the US making such things ? Yes, I do work for money but also LOVE to create.
It is said the our Creator expects us to CREATE, because he made us in his image.
Not religious, but I believe that observing the Ten Commandments is a good foundation for a honest life.
Local priest agrees.....
It simply traslates to Bhagavad Gita Chapter 2, Verse 47 - Focus on your work without being overly concerned about its results, and don't become inactive because of fear of failure.
Andrew Huberman’s take on finding rewards in the effort itself is such a game-changer! Learning to find pleasure in the process rather than just the result can make all the difference in staying motivated
Bro
I’m just finding people having mindset like me, thus I came here what I usually watch right
I want a friend whom I can work with on a business, like part time, we both giving 1 to 1 and half hour only everyday. I’m from an Asian country. I guess we could share our expertises right. You have a channel on wisdom right. Let us do smth.
As a kid, I panicked when we had to do school tests. Couldn't remember a thing. A very understanding teacher told me then that she knew how much I really knew and that I should not let the bad grades get me down. She encouraged me to follow my own assessment of how well I know a subject. That defined my life. I stopped learning for grades and started to enjoy learning so much more. Yes, it was difficult, but that also was the joy of it. It became a good challenge and a reward in itself. I am close to retirement now, and I had and still have a very successful, satisfying and happy work life. I've never stopped learning, and I am looking forward to new challenges in my retirement.
It’s a pity that “education” trains kids that outside evaluation is so important, when loving the learning is so much more important.
Which is why our AI teachers will evaluate how well THAT is going too. And probably do all evaluation surreptitiously so it doesn’t interfere with learning.
Sadly once you get into higher education if you don't perform well on test ...a lot of times you flunk that class and that's a lot of money to lose over a grade! The way colleges are set up is beyond ridiculous in my opinion! Too many younger people base their entire future on those grades ...getting that education!
It's amazing looking back at how that teacher probably changed the course of your life.
Yes, she did. Many years later, as an adult, I returned to my old school to thank her with a huge bouquet of flowers. I caught her on her last day before her retirement. Teachers can be so much more influential than they know. @@garythompson9452
I told my kids and my students over and over again, lean what you love, then you will love learning, and one day, you won't have to work, but you will get to to and do something yoy enjoy, that's the best part, the pay cheque is a bounce.
This is so true! The feeling of being comfortable with the uncomfortable is what drives me to work out. I work out 4-5 times per week and have been doing so for many years.
Dope 😏 Thanks 🙂I struggle with COPD, walking up small hill-winded. 65 now. 2023 I pushed myself a bit more each day, extremely focused on breathing, not on my tiring pain. Now I’m able to walk 4k on the trails, in 1.5hr non-stop, with energy left over. Way better than 7 months ago 🤗
ADD BIT EACH DAY!
That's amazing! What a lot of lung strength you must have added, and so much more oxygen.
@@thedancingdivaofdaviestree2320 Thanks for encouragement.
I’m believing it’s stamina. It’s like lifting weights. At first the weight seems too heavy, but after one week it gets easier, so you add a bit more. Heavy again, in awhile that seems easier too, so bit more. The morale here is- if you enjoy achieving these gains you can easily overcome the pain of continuing 🤗
5:00….Learning to experience the pleasure in the effort, the pain…instead of suffering through it while focus on the end goal. Change your focus to the effort & you will experience so much more pleasure (dopamine)along the way. I love it! My grandson & I were kayaking through a thunderstorm yesterday & we kept looking around at the beauty through the rain, mist above the trees… & it did let up finally, and the end was much sweeter. Now, it’s a treasured memory!❤

@@gaurav106_09 Thanks! Appreciate your help.
Here’s another tip: just do one small thing as part of a large project. The next day do another small part of the project. If you’re writing a book, just do one or two paragraphs of your next chapter. That leads you on. You feel so good just having done a small thing you can’t wait to get back to it. And that leads you into doing more each time, to the finish line. Kind of like eating a small bite of chocolate every day, teasing your palate.
I love your example!

It's like eating a big frog, you bite it one at a time. 😊😊

Thanks for this!
Years ago, while mountain biking, I was whining about how difficult a section of trail was and how I hated it. My dear friend suggested and said "don't look at it as a problem, look at it as a challenge". With that statement, he changed my life and my attitude towards most everything.
Two words I did not allow my students to use were ""easy" and "hard." Students who found work easy could frustrate those who found the work more difficult, while those who thought it was hard might simply give up. Instead, I encouraged them to look at what they faced as a challenge to overcome. For some the challenge might be greater while it was less than for others.
These ideas regarding children and motivation are described so well in the book "Punished by Rewards" by Alfie Kohn. Love his books and ideas.
One of my favorite books and also love Alfie Kohn's books in general and hos ideas.
Books are not for real men.
Watching this now was perfectly timed! I am working on a project that is requiring determination, effort, and multiple learning curves. It's been challenging, and not always fun, but I realized the other day that through this, I am becoming one of those people I've always admired. Now THAT'S a dopamine hit!
As a creative type I can relate to this. When I was a child/teenager I used to write, draw and make music purely for the joy of it, but as I got older I started focusing too much on the end goal of earning a living from my art, and then I didn't enjoy myself anymore. I want to start making art for fun again.
I hope someone helped those children to enjoy drawing again after they'd finished the study, otherwise that would be a pretty unethical way to gather scientific data.
Drawing and writing is for weak beta males.
When I was a kid, I loved playing baseball. I didn't care about winning, but the other boys did. And they hated me if I wasn't trying hard enough. They took the joy out of the game---so I didn't want to play anymore. ⚾

Feeling the moment is one of the most grounding and enjoyable things I've been learning how to do.
In German we say: the way is the goal. So he literally says you should focus and tell/ convince yourself to enjoy every step of the way (positive self conditioning)
You have to enjoy the process, with no end goal in sight.
When I work out, I do so simply because I enjoy doing so.
I also play the guitar, and when I am practicing, I do so because I enjoy it. There is no end goal to it.
When I am training with my firearms, I do so because I enjoy it. Once again, there is no end goal.
I have a saying that I came up with, which is that I enjoy the valleys because I have to go through them to reach the next peak.
So, I look forward to the valleys as much as I do the peaks, maybe even more.
I see a connection with what he’s saying here, and principles of mindset in childbirth I learned from Ina May Gaskin’s books. I have given birth seven times, four in hospital environments, fighting the pain, and three at home, leaning into it. It really is absolutely mind blowing how powerful the difference is.
I thought of birth too! One at the hospital that was super painful. 3 at home, of which the two last ones were pain free! Intense but no pain. Magical 🤩
I had both mine in the hospital but I embraced the pain anyway. Not only was it amazing but I can feel proud of the for the rest of my life! And great job to you, too :)
@@IntraDimensionalCrafter Yes! Embracing and owning the POWER in the pain verses trying to escape it, is the way. I personally had such terrible trust issues with the hospital setting after the first four, I didn’t trust myself to be able to stay strong in there. But I’ve met many amazing mothers who absolutely OWNED their hospital births! Praise the LORD! Good for you mama!
Beautiful perspective.
There is nothing fun or amazing about childbirth. That’s like saying hey, I leaned into cutting my leg off! It was great! Oh please. Can’t fool me
Brilliant. Can be summed up in 3 words: "Be Here Now."
Helping others any way you can is extremely rewarding!
Strongly agree ❤
I gotta tell you, you have changed my thought process with this one! There is so much wisdom here! Thank you for what you do! You have a kind and generous spirit!
It absolutely takes a conscious effort to "live in the moment" and take reward while that effort ensues. Good vid, opened my eyes.
What's wild is that I was able to do this for exercise easily. I love working out, I love the pain, I love pushing my body to see what it can do. But I got all messed up when it comes to my creative stuff once I started trying to hit a goal. I never thought I'd have to reteach myself how to love my hobbies, but this helped reframe it so I think I can get out of the hole
This is something I’ve learned through experience. Basically getting older and finding what works
I feel like recently I've been doing this subconsciously and have made more gains compared to in the past. Since covid i quit the gym and started working out at outdoor gyms and at home. My wife thinks its weird but i actually enjoy training now! I've been also training for calisthenics skills where initially the goal was to complete certain skills. In actual fact I'm now more focused on the journey rather than the destination, and i think this is key!

This reminds me of "intrinsic motivation," and "self-actualization;" concepts from the 1950s. Glad to see they have stood the test of time.

I’ve had a semi awareness of this for a long while and I appreciate a credentialed educator explaining this succinctly so I can get my point across to others.
The absolute rush I get from leaning into the cold water during my shower, is one of my favorite things. How I feel after the shower is just a bonus on top of that. It really is a mind-blowing thing because I hate the cold.
I don't know if this is going to be of help for anyone but I'll say what is it that keeps me motivated when I am in physical pain when doing exercising, or when I am the lab working extra hours instead of pleasantly resting at home.
When I find myself doing this kind of activities that indeed require a strong mindset to maintain yourself in a position of discomfort, I actually praise myself when I realize that I am in such position. I literally tell myself when I am working out and I can barely breathe due to the intensity of the workout: 'girl, you are damn cool you are strong enough to show up and endure this instead of lying on bed' And then I feel such a rush of self-accomplishment for letting myself go out and find discomfort that it just keeps me going throughout the workout or extra work hours.
It is just a feeling of proud for knowing that you are making yourself grow and enjoying the process instead of the goal that is so rewarding. Because, even when we reach our goals, do we stop growing or bettering ourselves? No. And when you fall in love with making yourself your ideal you, you stop focusing on the objective, and you instead focus on the process. That is why I you should praise yourself after every workout, not once you have achieved your ideal body. It is all about the process, guys. I hope this serves as some inspiration!
I’ve run a couple marathons quite a few years ago and can say I enjoyed the training even more than the completion. We’re conditioned because we always see people celebrating after any victory.
Same, but at the end of the training schedule I got tired of it, so that's why the marathon itself gave me a feeling of goal completed, I could start with the next goal now. Goals are also a part of progression.
So, you can choose what makes you happy and makes you feel fulfilled? I like that!
This is great. Instead of saying "I'm doing this because my dopamine level will increase soon" (which is too abstract for some people) you can say "I'm doing this to improve my technique/ grow muscle / understand medieval history better" - instead of win the game/ win the fight/ ace the test. This technique was described in The Power of Double Goal Coaching and has been found in studies to massively increase performance.
v2 what you said doesnt it conflict with the information contained in the video, if doing a workout you said you can say, im doing this to grow muscle, however isnt that focus on the gold star, the reward, some end goal, my understanding was that the video was saying to link pleasure to the discomfort letting go of any thought of the outcome thus reason its being done, what your saying seems to be connecting with the outcome again which seems to contradict the video.

I've tried multiple times to work out and look bigger and have nicer muscles but I always stopped after a few weeks. I have now stuck at it the longest I've ever done (around 6 months now) because I changed mindset from working to an end goal of looking good to just feeling better, healthier in the day to day, managing anxiety etc. This is golden!
You are touching on the spiritual practice of mindfullness in physical effort.The joy of being fully immersed in the painfulness of your physical existence through ones own choices in whatever activity you are doing because it is deeply fullfilling.And the dopamine flush will come.
My mind just exploded..wow, so simple...and complex at the same time. Thank you
As a person who came from a family who was economically challenged and got the minimum as a kid, I find as a teacher kids and adults love getting rewarded for doing great work. Humans want to be acknowledged for a good job no matter if it’s a 5k or the Spelling Bee.
Three things humans need for good self esteem, & confidence. ...1), Acceptance. 2), Validation. 3) Encouragement.
Rewards are great. Too many rewards for routines are not

The dog whisperer would agree
We r basically animals
If u r living in an extremely cold country and enjoy the moderately heated home, try spending 1 hr in extremely hot conditions, you'll imdtly switch to survival mode and the 1hr will seem like...u guessed right...eternity
Right?
We're here to thrive, not merely survive
The subconscious controls the body and mind(via the brain)
Try faking and the subconscious will find ways to safe guard both body & mind and put you back in the comfort of mediocrity
I think it's cos we've learnt to depend upon external rewards, like the kids who drew, got gold stars then stipped drawing when the external rewards stopped. External rewards are used to manipulate us & we become dependent. I'm sad about how hard I find it to validate myself.
"Learn to spike your dopamine from effort itself"
So well said 🤘🏻6:56
Makes sense. In my younger days I was at the top of my field in masonry construction. Laying heavy concrete block all day long in the hot South Florida summers is extremely strenuous work, and takes a lot out of you, but I loved it. It never bothered me that I laid twice as many block as the guy next to me who got paid the same or more than me. The rewards came later when I started my own company, but I didn't do it just for the money, it just made the most sense. By God's grace I ended up doing well, and am semi-retired, and can still do it when I need too, but I do it now because I still enjoy it, not because I need the money.
It certainly makes all the struggles and problems of your job a lot easier when you do it because you enjoy it and not just for a paycheck. I never could stand working around people like that very long, they didn't last long on my job, sometimes only a few hours.

This really helps me to understand my self-sabotage throughout the years!
daylon what caused your self sabotage over the years? was it your focus on the end result instead of deriving pleasure from the process including when it was hard and getting feelings of accomplishment off of pushing yourself, do you think focusing on the result leads to frustration which then somehow conditions itself to the task.
Holy molly! He just described me! I don't get a kick from seeing myself accomplish a goal. I just do what I gotta do as a job that needs completion. I get it done and move on.
I know amazing ❤
In my experience, ‘telling’ myself the effort is the reward does NOT work. What works is LISTENING to whatever it is inside me that is telling me how pleasurable the effort is. I don’t know what it is that’s doing that ‘talking’ but it’s different from the conscious me trying to impose my will on it and it’s not at all the reward system. It’s just a sort of listening, like ‘oh, that’s right, now I remember, this activity is a blast! (even if it’s strenuous.)’ Thank you for this video. It helped me focus my thoughts on this issue. Definitely subscribing.
Great comment thanks for sharing.
superb distinctions being made here, i could literally feel my dopamine levels increase as i anchored the reward to effort. pumped now. thank you.
I work with a martial artist who is an international champ. When interviewed, she always says that she just took the next natural/logical step at every stop along the way. She was enjoying the process, and it has made a huge difference in her performance.

Your effort in anything is always 100% owned by you. Rewards and accomplishments seldom are, and I find it sad that society uses them to manipulate us into thinking we are better than one another in some way. So... may you all find the things that bring you joy, and throw yourself into the effort of doing them for no reason other than "just because".
Love this! Effort is internal, reward is external.
You insight is just as POWERFUL as this video. Thank you.
Great thought!
That’s wisdom and I’ve screenshot it for posterity (and tomorrow when I’m struggling again and have forgotten). Thank you wise and generous stranger. 🙏🏼❤️🕊️⚖️😘
Something that works for me, is saying to myself on hard workouts or whatever. Is that the when it get's hard that is why I'm training. That's exactly what I came for. And more often than not saying that in my head or out loud makes me smile.
Focusing on the process rather than the result is age-old wisdom. It allows you to enjoy life more because you are being present in every moment rather than looking towards the future.

I learned this but wasn’t able to put it in to words until I saw this. I went on a hike one weekend and did a new trail that I thought would only be slightly more challenging than I’d done before. It was a good amount more difficult than I did before. While hiking I began to wish I was done with the hike and back in my air conditioned car. I told myself “the only way back to my car is through the woods.” Then I realized that was the point of going on a hike in the first place. It made the rest of the hike enjoyable despite the difficulty.
I wise man once told me that we can convince ourselves of anything so convince yourself that the best things for you are enjoyable. The longer you do it, the more you’ll believe it.
Simply put... These are STOIC principles that teach us to create intentions, not goals. This way, you focus on the process and effort applied.
You are powerful!
Be Strong, Be Knowing, BELIEVE! 💪💯
Completely agree! As a highly creative person, it is always in the process, aka effort, that I find the most joy, and sense of accomplishment. The “end-goal” becomes the postcard for the experience.
"The end-goal becomes the postcard for the experience."
I really liked that.. I make music as a hobby and always feel let down when nobody but me and maybe my mum listen to it (I force her). But seeing the final project like a postcard, especially fitting as it has an album Cover, makes it more rewarding and personal :)
Thank you for this excellent sharing on an essential aspect of Truth. I have learned this at a very young age. In my twenties, as a lover of the Indian philosopher J. Krishnamurti, I had learned that basing my motivation on receiving the "carrot" was more like the functioning of a donkey than that of an authentic human being. We are lucky to live during Times when all myths are debunked.
Big up to this man for teaching us what he understood. Bless up brother. Thanks.
This explains a lot such as why I dread starting a project & delay until the guilt/anxiety created by my procrastination overrides the dread & negative feelings. Its as if a switch goes off & I look forward to getting the thing underway.
To whoever needs to hear it: I love you, even though I don’t know you. And I want to thank you for just being you. Now go get some sleep. You deserve a peaceful rest. You’ve fought enough today. Good night. BAM Loves YOU. 🥰 See ya next time - get better every day.
Thank you ❤
Love you, Bam! Stay this positive for the rest of your life!
Love you too

As an executive and career coach I have often advised my clients to get off outcome. This video explains biochemical reasons why this shift is such a game changer. Thanks Andrew!
joe where does visualization fit into it, you said you advised clients to get off outcomes, so where does visualization of the outcome aka law of assumption come into play, how do we harmonize these two understandings, that of getting off the outcome, and that of visualizing the outcome.
@@Samanthax1221 - Right, I don't dump outcome in terms of the long term planning and visioning processes. Long range vision and planning is very important! I think it's more a matter what's best and most helpful on a daily or moment by moment basis. We have become so hyper sensitive to getting short term results and dopamine hits that if we don't see an immediate benefit or tie to our long range goal or desired outcome it's easy to get disheartened and give up. Many of my clients find themselves in this state.
The law of assumption, I think, helps us to move toward our intention. So I didn't meant to imply that either this concept or using visualization aren't valuable but rather a matter of emphasis on a daily / short term basis.
Another related thought that I find very helpful is the shift James Clear recommends in Atomic Habits to focus on the identity of who he wants to be or become . This then informs the behaviors or habits THAT person would hold. It's a great way of anchoring your vision to your daily walk in life. Just by asking a question ... is this thing I am doing or considering doing something that the person I want to be , would do?
@@TitanCoachThank you for your insights on how to harmonize the understanding expressed in the video, which I feel is super valuable, and the law of assumption. Also, thank you for the additional tip of focusing on the identity of the individual I want to become. Asking the question, 'Is this thing I am doing or considering doing something the person I want to be would do?' I think it will be empowering to get all this down on paper, making it clear to myself what this individual that I want to become would and wouldn't do day to day. Making it clear to myself and reviewing that daily. I have never read 'Atomic Habits.' Thanks for this tip; it's much appreciated!

There’s a Saying in the Hindi language “कर्म करते रहो फल की आशा ना रख” 🙂
It means ‘Keep doing the work, Do Not Worry about the end result’
🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
00:00 🏆 Focusing solely on the end goal or reward can undermine the pleasure derived from the effort itself.
01:50 🧠 Cultivating a growth mindset involves finding pleasure in effort and striving, rather than just pursuing external rewards.
03:56 ☕ Focusing only on the end goal makes the process more painful and less efficient.
05:32 💪 In moments of intense friction, tell yourself that the pain will lead to increased dopamine release and that you're doing it because you love it.
06:29 🧬 Accessing pleasure from effort is a powerful aspect of dopamine, and it's accessible to everyone. Avoid spiking dopamine before or after effort; learn to find pleasure in the effort itself.

In Greece there is a poet Kavafis who wrote a famous poem Ithaki (Ithaka in English) that describes exactly the beauty of the journey.
Find pleasure in the journey, not the destination, and you'll never commute a day in your life.
I like that
This is helpful because a lot of my stress and anger is derived from me not getting projects such as home improvement projects, to the finish line. I look at unfinished projects or tasks that are put off either due to leisure, the inability to take time off of work, or something else coming up, as failures or in essence, rewards that I am not achieving.
If I can rewire my mind to only get the dopamine while working on the project or task, it appears I can stop being so hard on myself for not being that “good little boy” who finished his work.
Projects are for lazy people. True men make things done.
We do what we can with what we've got .. strive for better yes but don't get so caught up in the outcome that we lose the joy in the doing .. it the journey that counts not the destination
Great job helping me finally understand this concept. I too have tons of projects and most go unfinished. This drives me nuts!!! No more motivation, desire, energy, whatever. Probably because all i want is to get it completed so i can jump on the next, and the next, and next....i see!!! I need to start enjoying the whole process and not seeing only the good when task done!! When i was younger and just started doing home tasks and projects i was like an unstoppable human dynamo! Big family joke was dad doing his first concrete patio at 5 o'clock in the morning still in his pajamas!!@ i was so excited to do something for the first time that i couldn't sleep. Anyway thanks for sharing!!!

"Striving itself is the end-goal" wish I had learned this earlier than 21, but it has been my mindset recently and it really works. At this point I get my pleasure just from the feeling of running, studying, cleaning and organising, dealing with an unwanted problem, etc
At that moment I am doing it by choice and I am doing it because I love it! Turn an effort into a reward. Learn to spike dopamine in effort itself

Buddha said around 2.500 years ago: Happiness is in the journey, not the destination.
While I am putting myself through a hard work out, I will just keep repeating to myself "I am choosing this" and "I love this". During those bouts of extreme pain or exhaustion, I will more emphatically say "I LOVE THIS" and this is AMAZING (and try to smile gleefully for extra 'pleasure impulse'). I will certainly give this a shot and make the pain experience my goal.

Hello 👋
Both..there *is* an afterlife❤
Pure enjoyment of an activity comes when you become so obsessed with it that you suddenly forget about the end goal and the world around you. When you reach a point where you stop thinking about the salary, grades or scholarship, and that pain of suffering gives you happiness, you’ve embodied the quote “the journey matters more than the destination”
The only activity I can relate this to is guitar playing. I started playing the guitar when I was 13 years old. My parents bought a nylon string acoustic guitar for me, and it was difficult to play at first. I took a guitar lesson at a high school summer class. It was really painful to press my fingers on the strings because I had soft finger tips. But I loved the sound of guitars so much, that I endured the pain and kept practicing my lessons. I think I was able to press on the strings hard enough to get a decent sound after about two weeks. After I got over the pain, it was much easier to play open C, E, A, G, and F chords (a lot of beginning guitar students hate to play the open F chord. I guess it's because you get a double dose of pain on your index finger.). If I practice daily, my fingertips will become hard, and the fretted strings will have a good tone. I've spent most of my teen years playing the acoustic guitar. After I graduated from high school, my parents bought an electric guitar for me. Man, that guitar was so easy to play compared to my acoustic! With the amplified sound, I didn't have to try so hard. I just naturally knew how to get the best tone out of the strings because of all those years of struggling with my acoustic guitar. It was like being let out of a cage.
When I was young I remember parents scorning youngsters with their guitars. In recent years I have realised the skill required, and I love to listen. I bought my first keyboard when I was seventy years old and I enjoy theory with Brian on Zombie Guitar. Playing around is fun but I doubt I shall ever reach a standard I would wish for. Just enjoy❤
OMG, I know exactly what you mean. I have only played guitar for the last 6 years probably & recently I got my son’s electric guitar… Whole new world!❤❤❤

@@booswalia become mindful of how you derive pleasure / rewards from a task. It's a lot harder than it sounds (as most things). But if you try to pay attention to it, you can slowly direct where the pleasure from a task comes from. When you run, don't hate yourself while doing it and look forward for the dopamine spike afterwards. learn to enjoy the process. It's like a new skill you need to learn, but once you do, it's a gamechanger (it has been for me)
@@chainwild5272How are you 😮😊
I so needed to see this video!!! Telling yourself you “love the effort” is not necessarily a lie bcuz whatever your conscious mind tells your subconscious mind, it (the subconscious) accepts as true. Accepts as the truth! Your subconscious mind has confirmation bias and no mechanism to challenge what you tell it. Thru repetition, if you tell yourself that “effort is pleasurable” over time you’ll believe it to be true and as a result your body will produce the chemicals (dopamine) that your mind translates as pleasure🥰🥰

Great video. One of my favorite quotes is from Joe Frazier: “Champions are not made in the ring, they are merely recognized there.” Learning to spike dopamine during the training the ultimately leads to the win is a brilliant way to derive enjoyment from the very thing that produces victory: hard work, discipline and dedication.

Sadhguru says similar (& he understands the neurology behind it too), he said when people work joyfully, not “hard”, they’re much more productive & healthy, and that parents don’t realize that they shouldn’t constantly “shush” their kids when laughing & playing, because that’s reprimanding them from having being joyful.
He also says that no matter what you do, grown adults who have fully developed brains & are emotionally developed have the ability to choose to do whatever job or activity joyfully, not see it as “hard”, which is all about an adult’s responsibility to make their inner self in control of their mind & body, rather than living in a state of reaction where you allow things on the outside to dictate how you feel.
Thank you, this is awesome. I kind of do this already when I exercise - I do it for the feeling of doing it, and also the feeling of relaxation and lifted mood a little while after. And today I used this mindset to get through only my second day of fasting ever (first time was thirteen years ago.) I really didn't struggle at all and actually enjoyed the discipline and feeling like my body was getting something it really wanted and needed. I hope to make a weekly habit of this.

This makes so much sense. I used to love working out and I worked out all the time… not for the results, because I loved doing it. The work felt good.
I feel this way daily!! I had no Idea why I love the efforts I put out every day !!!
Effort is for people who who have nothing between legs. Only result. You will never be a true men.
How are you doing today 😊😊
this is great advice if you're actually learning or picking up a skill. how do you motivate yourself when you're in a thankless job where your work is often taken for granted by others? perhaps one that doesn't inspire much personal growth because you're just following rules/guidelines/instructions like an automaton? how do you convince yourself that you're doing something important to keep yourself motivated? there's rewarding pain, and then there's just senseless pain - challenges that are a complete waste of time because you walk away without growing.
This is absolutely wonderful. Thank you. So clearly explained.
With working out I find this 10000% I love working out, I enjoy the process, the movement, the feeling and everything and have zero eye on the end goal. But at work, the boring tasks. It is so so much harder to find the enjoyment of the process in the most mundane tasks. Here I need more advice on the how!
I’m a mother and I’ve always said that I don’t really care about achievement. With my kids, and myself, what I care about is attitude and effort. It is ALWAYS the process, the journey, the adventure that is important to me. If you put in the effort, have a great attitude and then end up achieving something, great. But achievement alone is hollow.
