Something New

There’s excitement,

joy, and

a total buzz

when starting something new.

Yes, the dopamine hit of anticipation is real.

Whilst it can be tempting to chase this feeling by starting (and perhaps not finishing) many things, over and over again, there is a bigger - and better - feeling when we start with the anticipation of seeing it through.

Persistence,

achievement, and

success,

compound the buzz of starting something new, and outweigh any short term dopamine rush.

As the saying goes, start (and continue) with the end in mind.

Because that is a feeling worth chasing, don’t you agree?!
