The death of any loved parent is an incalculable lasting blow. Because no one ever loves you again like that.

At just five years old, she learned to pretend everything was okay. She was clever and active, always wanting to go to school and learn, but instead, she was burdened with endless chores. She was forced to wash dishes, clean, sweep the yard, and pump water. After a long day of hard work, she was given only leftover food to eat. This harsh routine continued for years.

A Life of Struggle

By the time she was eight, her uncle, who had been away for studies, returned home with his new wife. Astonished by the situation she had been living in, he decided to take her to his home. Though she was overjoyed at the thought of leaving, she kept her excitement hidden. She quickly packed her bags, eager to escape the cruelty she had endured and step into a new world she had only dreamed of.

A Glimmer of Hope

They reached the station, bought train tickets, and settled into their seats. As the train speed up towards her new life, she looked out the window, her eyes shining with a happiness she had long forgotten. For the first time in years, she felt a sense of peace, knowing she was finally going home to a place where she would be safe and loved.

The Journey to Freedom

Upon arriving at her uncle’s home, she was warmly welcomed by her aunt. While her uncle went to buy groceries, her aunt turned on the TV and told her to watch it while she prepared something to eat. But when her uncle returned, he couldn’t find her in the living room. Both he and his wife panicked and called out for her.

A New Home and Joyful Beginnings

A small voice came from the corner of the room. There she was, huddled in the corner, unsure if she was allowed to sit on the couch. Her uncle gently asked why she was sitting there and reassured her that she wouldn’t be scolded. Her aunt lovingly echoed the sentiment, leaving the little girl to slowly realize that she was now in a place where she could feel safe, loved, and free to be a child again.

Adjusting to Love

As time passed, the happiness she once felt began to fade. After living with her uncle and aunt for three years, she returned from school one day to find unfamiliar shoes outside the house. She ran into the kitchen and was told that these were her relatives. Although she greeted them with a smile, their reaction was far from warm. They whispered to her aunt, questioning why she was being kept with them.

The Shift in the Home's Atmosphere

From that day on, she noticed a change in her aunt’s behavior. The once loving and caring atmosphere in the house grew tense. Arguments between her uncle and aunt became frequent, and the affection they once showered on her slowly disappeared, leaving her in a home that no longer felt safe or welcoming.

Her Last Wish

Dopamine gives us the desire to take action to earn the exciting reward that’s waiting for us. It is the force that makes us act.

Simply because an event triggers the release of dopamine doesn’t mean it is something we like or get pleasure from. In fact, when you pay close attention, you’ll notice that as soon as you obtain the expected reward, you’ll often feel empty and unfulfilled.

Studies have shown that one of the best predictors of success is the abilityto think long term. People who repeatedly focus on where they want to bein the future, make better decisions in the present. They tend to eat healthier food, be more productive at work and save and invest more money than others.

Dopamine and constant stimulation can help you to think

Step #1. Identify your biggest distractions ﻿﻿The first step to implementing an effective dopamine detox is to identify your biggest temptations and distractions. To do so, take a pen and a sheet of paper (or use your action guide), and create two columns, “Cans” and “Can’ts”.In the first column write down all the activities you will allow yourself to engage in. For instance, it might be going for a walk, journaling, working on a project, or reading books.

A THREE-STEP METHOD FOR A  SUCCESSFUL DETOX

In the second column, write down all the things you must avoid doing during your dopamine detox. For instance, it might be watching YouTube, checking your emails, or using social media.To help you do this, ask yourself the following questions: If I stopped doing only one thing, which one would increase my focus and boost my productivity the most dramatically?What other activity do I need to avoid in order to help me increase my focus most significantly?

Generally speaking, the harder something is to access, the less likely you 
are to do it and vice-versa. This is why you must redesign your environment to make undesirable behaviors more difficult to engage in while making more desirable behaviors easier to conduct.Look at the habits or activities you want to eliminate and ask yourself how you could add friction—the more friction, the better.

Step #2. Add friction

If your phone is your biggest distraction, remove all notifications or put it on airplane mode. Or, even better, switch it off and put it in a separate room.If Facebook is your biggest distraction, remove as many notifications as you can and/or use applications such as Newsfeed Eradicator (a Google Chrome extension). If you spend hours watching YouTube videos, install DF Tube on your Google Chrome navigator, or find a similar app for your internet browser. This will remove all the suggestions and notifications. Then, only watch videos that serve a specificpurpose.

Adding friction might sound overly simple, but it works. This is because, as 
humans, we’re fundamentally lazy. We hate wasting energy unless we are forced to. If you need to go to another room to grab your phone (friction #1)
and also need to turn it on (friction #2), you are less likely to do it for a while.

The third and final step is simply to get started. I recommend you start first thing in the morning before becoming overly stimulated. I’ve noticed that if I check my phone or access the internet upon waking up, I will probably become distracted.I also recommend you create a morning routine to help you start your day on a positive note and with a strong focus. Over the long term, a simple morning routine can make a massive difference in your life.What about you? What’s the first thing you do when you wake up?!

Step #3 Start first thing in the morning

Does this help you remain calm and focused, or does it lead you to feel overstimulated and result in procrastination?To establish your morning routine, write down two or three simple things you could do each morning. You’ll use these activities to kickstart your dopamine detox and, hopefully, you will stick to the routine over the long term. Remember that the routine should deepen your focus rather than stimulate you. For instance, you could:MeditateListen to some relaxation music,Write down your goals for the day,Write down three things you’re grateful forRepeat positive affirmations.

You can choose to control your focus, or you can let someone else take it away from you. When you learn to avoid highly stimulating activities that destroy your ability to remain calm and focused, you’ll find yourself capable of tackling your major tasks with more ease than ever before. Going through a dopamine detox will help you lower your level of stimulation and ensure you work on your major tasks.Remember that excitement and fulfillment aren’t the same things. As you learn to eliminate external stimulations and immerse yourself in your work, hobbies, or relationships.

Summary

You will also end up becoming far more productive and accomplishing many of your goals and dreams.So, stop letting your environment hijack your brain and regain control of it instead. This is the key to a healthy and productive life.

A "Dopamine Detox" helps reset your brain by reducing instant gratification from activities like social media and junk food. It aims to restore focus and mental clarity by limiting dopamine-triggering behaviors. Here's how to start and what benefits you can expect.

Dopamine Detox 

There are two kinds of personalities. There are those who have everything and still complain as if they have nothing. And there are those who lose everything and act like life has given them everything. Sometimes both these personalities exist in the same soul. Kill the first one, I love the second.

Every person has his or her own ideology about life that gives them confidence

Different Perspectives

Society has never helped anyone; whether you do something right or wrong, it only criticizes

There are two kinds of personalities. There are those who have everything and still complain as if they have nothing. And there are those who lose everything and act like life has given them everything.
