Too many people rely on instant gratification for their dopamine / worth rewards. You SAY you're going to do something and feel satisfied that you attempted it. If you even attempt it at all. You get pleasure from declaring your goals because it makes you feel like you’re moving towards them. But this is false satisfaction. We (humans) should only be rewarded either through high EFFORT or by seeing a goal through to completion. You SAY you want to start a business or launch a project but did you actually do it? Action > words Lean in to the uncomfortableness of working in silence and experience the joy of spending months or even years on working towards a goal without giving yourself a false reward. I Spent 16 months bullding Noetic and only 3 people knew about it. The reward lexperience when actually launching a fully completed supplement was far greater than any thing could have had by just talking about it. Delayed gratification is a key to growth and success.
