I think you have to find alternative means of getting that dopamine.
You can't just kind of expect to deprive yourself and for it to work like you will fail.
I kind of had this, like, newfound mental clarity, and I was like, what, like...
What am I feeling?
Essentially, I had gone through like detox and withdrawal, like from the dopamine that you get from shopping.
I broke my no-buy.
I bought a pair of shoes that, to be fair, I have been wanting for probably close to 10 years.
They're Alexander Wang.
They're called the Sloan boot.
They look like Frankenstein boots.
Most people won't like them, but I love them.
Y'all, I broke my no-buy.
So I've wanted these shoes since 2014 when I saw them on the runway, and I just found these for such a good price, and I am so happy.
So I am very proud of myself, which is not, I don't really, I never really felt very proud.
I've seen a new level of dedication and focus that maybe I wasn't aware of.
It's not that I didn't have it.
It's just that I wasn't aware that I was capable of it before.
