Dopamine Vs Endorphins, which one do you pick?

You love food, and when you think about it, your mouth waters, and your sense of happiness is overwhelming;

If you swipe Douyin, you can’t stop once you swipe;

You play games and are hyperactive all night....

It's all dopamine at work. Once we do something that is stimulating or feels beneficial, or is about to do something beneficial, the brain will secrete dopamine, which makes us feel happy. As small as eating and drinking water, as big as explorers climbing Mount Everest, all motivation is provided by dopamine. But it is not easy to rely on dopamine to persist for a long time. Because the effect of the stimulus will diminish rapidly, and it will strike when it is not rewarded.

So the smart human brain found another happy substance-endorphins.

When running long distances, there is a wonderful "pole". Before that point, one will feel very tired; once that point is passed, the body is rejuvenated and invigorated. At this time, the body is secreting endorphins. It will also be released when we are highly focused and stressed, making people work tirelessly. In a word, endorphins are "abuse-seeking type". The harder and harder you challenge, the longer the time, the happier you will be.

In real life, the feedback cycle for us to do something may be very long, and it takes a month or a year to see a little effect (such as fitness, such as doing projects). Because of the endorphins, as long as you focus on the present moment and do not seek the reward and pleasure of this moment, when the ultimate goal is achieved, you will obtain peaceful, eternal and more fulfilling happiness.

In Zhengtu, many friends may have experienced endorphins. The hearty feeling we feel after every game of football, the inner ecstasy when we cooperate with teammates to send the basketball into the blue frame, the moment when the project team wins the PK after fighting fiercely at the customer site for several months...you I will always remember that feeling of happiness, and I still feel very fulfilled every time I recall it.

The relief of experiencing pain is the feeling of endorphins. Do you also want to experience this magical sense of happiness?
