Dopamine is a kind of material released when one is engaged in a certain activity that makes him or her pleased or happy.
When one feels the pleasure of dopamine in an activity, one tends to engage more in it and gain more pleasure. However, the bar of receiving dopamine raises automatically as the person take part in the activity more frequently.
The problem becomes that dopamine is increasingly difficult to get and the person becomes more determined to get it and thus become more addictive. however, being more addictive does not promise more pleasure or happiness, on the contrary, the person may suffer more pain in the pursuit of such pleasure.
Therefore, maybe one should avoid becoming addictive to the dopamine from meaningless of harmful activities. Only when the dopamine is released from positive and meaningful things, can the person benefit from it.
