  • Summary

  • If you live under a bridge, dopamine makes you want a tent. If you live in a tent, dopamine makes you want a house. If you live in the most expensive mansion in the world, dopamine makes you want a castle on the moon. 

    For dopamine, there is no finish line.

     The dopamine motto is “more”. Dopamine makes you desire what you don’t have yet. It drives you to seek new things. 

    It is the source of creativity and madness. 

    It is the key to addiction and the path to recovery. I

    t is dopamine that makes a really ambitious executive sacrifice everything – his family and health etc- In pursuit of success. 

    It is dopamine that makes successful people keep working long hours even after they have all the money and fame that they ever dreamed of. 

    It is what makes a husband or wife risk everything for the thrill of someone new. It makes scientists find explanations to tough questions and makes philosophers find order, reason and meaning. 

    It is the reason why we look into the sky for redemption and god. It fuels our dreams. It is the reason we feel bad when we fail. 

    Listen in to understand how this magical chemical works in shaping your life.
