In other words , we are going to have to have enough dopamine in the wave pool , enough water in the wave pool that is before we can generate any waves or peaks in dopamine , let alone troughs and the rest . So how do we achieve a healthy baseline level of dopamine ? Well , there we can really look to some foundational practices , practices that perhaps you've heard about on this podcast before .
If we are going to feel motivated at all , that is if we are going to wake up in the morning or have any period of time during our day in which we feel like we are capable of pursuing goals . We are going to have to have a healthy level of baseline dopamine . In other words , we are going to have to have enough dopamine in the wave pool , enough water in the wave pool that is before we can generate any waves or peaks in dopamine , let alone troughs and the rest .
You can find those there , but you need proper nutrition and therefore nutrients in particular tyro . In order to have sufficient levels of baseline dopamine the third thing on the list . And again , these are things that we come back to almost every episode , but I don't think they can be repeated enough because these are really things that we need to focus on every 24 hours .
Some people just seem to have lower activation energy and higher levels of dopamine are probably associated with that . Some of us have lower levels of baseline dopamine , regardless , everyone needs to engage in the foundational things that I just mentioned a few moments ago every 24 hours or at least strive to . There is no escaping that .
If you're going to be able to engage in any kind of motivated pursuit behavior of any kind . So those are the fundamentals that will set the level of baseline dopamine in your system . A couple of key points .
