The Dopamine Economy

This is the second article in the Betterment series. Whereas in The Aimless Pursuit of Self-Improvement we looked at how to set yourself up for success in your goals through high-level mental strategies, in this article we dive into why some behaviors undermine our productivity and well-being and what to do about it.

The Aimless Pursuit of Self-Improvement

The first, but not least, article in the Betterment series out of three. Think back on all those videos, tutorials, lifehacker articles, even books that you consumed over the years. We love to consume them alright — they make us feel like we’re doing something, but can you look at your browser history and count the number of such articles in the past year that you really acted upon and somehow made your life better as a result? If the answer is “none” or even “some” then this article might be for you.
