Sure.
Like the whole dopamine squirt thing, that's not true.
I've never even heard of that.
No, yeah, you have.
You get the squirt of dopamine.
Oh, right, sure.
That's not true.
Dopamine is not cocaine.
But the way it's used is, oh, I check social media because I get the dopamine squirt.
Like that's become a practical fiction.
Because it sounds true.
And, you know, as someone who studies this stuff, I bristle at it.
It's like that's not how dopamine works.
On the other hand, if there's a story –
that helps keep you motivated.
If there's a belief that works to your advantage, who am I to say don't use it?
And so what you're able to do is to say doing this stuff gets me going.
It's a privilege to do it.
It helps me.
And that's actually the more important macro lesson.
