But it's called success addiction, and it's a literal addiction to the hits of dopamine that you get when you achieve something, when you succeed at something. See, the scientists, they know that something's going on in your body neurologically when good things happen. It produces this positive hormone in your body, and we get addicted to that. And so what we wind up doing with a success addiction is we're striving for that next hit. We're striving for that next achievement, which by the way, just like in drug addiction, will never be as good as the first hit. It will never be as good as the first hit.
