why the 10th time you do something fun it doesn’t feel as good as the 1st time
In: Biology
Achieving a goal or completing a task can be accompanied by a “dopamine rush” literally a chemical released into our brain in reaction to rewarding stimuli. As a task is repeated, however, the “rush” from accomplishment can subside as a familiar or routine task does not give as great a sense of accomplishment as doing something unfamiliar or new.
