Why you should always make your bed first thing in the morning
We’ve discussed this before, and we’ll say it again.
Make youe damn bed in the morning. Why?
Achieving goals and tasks in the morning can trigger a dopamine release in your brain, which leads to a cascade of positive feelings.
What is dopamine?
Dopamine is a brain chemical that acts like a reward system, giving you pleasure and motivation to repeat actions. It also helps with movement, learning, and mood.
Here's how it breaks down:
Dopamine surge: When you complete a task, especially one you set for yourself, your brain releases dopamine, a neurotransmitter associated with reward and motivation.
Positive feelings: This dopamine surge creates a sense of accomplishment, satisfaction, and happiness. It feels good to check things off your list!
Motivation boost: The positive feelings further fuel your motivation. You feel energized and more likely to tackle other tasks throughout the day.
This positive cycle can set you up for a productive and rewarding day. It's like a mini win that gets your momentum going.
