Join Dave Crenshaw for an in-depth discussion in this video Celebrating success for improvement, part of Time Management Tips Weekly.
- One man told me of how his brother…made an exceptional sale for his business.…The man asked his brother what…are you going to do to celebrate it?…And this business owner said well, there's lots to do,…I need to get back to work so, nothing I guess.…While this may seem like the business owner is hard working,…he's actually short changing his success.…This is an interesting phenomenon…that I discovered as I was researching studies…for my book, "The Power of Having Fun".…
One study from the University of Washington found that mice,…when deprived of the naturally occurring…motivation chemical dopamine,…took significantly longer to perform a simple task.…The more they persisted in that task,…without dopamine, the worse their times got.…On the other hand, mice that had a little pick me up…of dopamine at any point in the process cut…their performance time roughly in half.…
Now, we're not mice yet some of us are treating ourselves…like a rodent in a maze, doomed to repeat…the same experience over and over with no joy in sight.…
