Addiction arises from the allure of immediate rewards. These instant gratifications clearly activate our brains, attracting those who favor such rewards. They play a critical role in shaping human activities and contributing to addiction. For example, if a student struggling to focus notices immediate improvements after studying for just a little while, they are likely to keep studying diligently. Similarly, if stock investors can confirm the traded stock price a month or a year later during their transactions, they may lose interest in trading. The timing of rewards greatly influences human interactions and societal structures. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
When the caterpillar believed its journey was at an end, it transformed into a beautiful butterfly. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the shell you need to shed and think it marks the end of everything you know. But change is really about embracing new beginnings and discovering a fresh perspective! Although changing ourselves can be daunting and even a little painful, it’s also a chance for growth. The caterpillar that struggles with what to let go of isn’t foolish; it’s simply on a journey of discovery. So, before you stress about your next steps, why not take a moment to reflect on what your shell represents? - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
