The Four Phases Of Learning: From Kid To Old

After doing the task for some time, you enter the teen phase where you start to feel more confident and want to show off your skills. You might also want to make it a permanent part of your life if it helps you climb the social ladder. But even if it doesn't, you will still do it until you get what the kid wants. In this phase, due to a sense of logic and calmness, you will be able to handle a few things which oppose dopamine. Now, it's okay if the task would be a little bit harder, boring, frustrating or little long.

After doing it for a long time, you enter the adult phase where you have gained enough experience and knowledge to balance the dopamine and the things that oppose it.

This is the final phase where the skill has become a permanent part of your life and you don't care if it's fun or boring. You just do it.

Skills which can't balance the dopamine VS resistance ratio can never be learnt with perfection. Brain will resist or love the task depending upon how much it enjoys doing it. But slowly & steadily, the ratio will fade away by removing and adding cues & cravings throughout the four phases.
