Dopamine is powerful.
It has been exploited in a hundred different ways to addict and enslave us…
But, it is also something that drive us to pursue what we want to pursue.
It can be abused in order to trap, or harnessed to express freedom.
The cool thing is, the choice is ours!
We can choose what we give our time to.
We can choose where we put our focus.
We can choose what we spend our time getting excited about …
What makes our brain buzz with dopamine.
And our dopamine doesn’t need to be spent consuming and consuming,
The next thing and the next thing,
Over and over again, ad mortem.
We can ACT and choose to get excited about MAKING instead.
About what the next thing is that we can CREATE.
About what the next thing our minds can conceive and our hands can weave.
It’s literally never been easier to learn a new skill,
create something new,
and get it out into the world.
THAT’S SUPER EXCITING!
If we let it, it can be something that gets the dopamine flowing.
That feels much more rewarding and meaningful than keeping on scrolling for the next thing to consume.
We were created in the image of a Creator.
So, create.
