According to Kotler, <strong>including other people in your exploration garners positive feedback and social reinforcement<\/strong>. This positive attention generates a combination of dopamine and oxytocin. This makes your progress feel more meaningful and boosts your motivation to continue learning more about your topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Regularly discuss what you\u2019re discovering with other people. Talk to friends, join groups devoted to the subject, or start an online community.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: While <a href=\"https:\/\/faze.ca\/why-important-exchange-your-ideas\/\">positive social reinforcement can provide support and useful feedback<\/a>, it can also reduce your motivation to pursue your interests. Psychological studies find that <a href=\"https:\/\/forge.medium.com\/why-you-shouldnt-share-your-ideas-with-everyone-e61f58326782\">positive social reinforcement makes you feel like you\u2019re making progress even when you\u2019re not<\/a>. This feeling of progress feels good but <strong>it\u2019s based on a false sense of achievement that causes you to lose sight of what you need to do to move forward<\/strong>. For example, receiving positive feedback about your idea to use solar power to grow produce makes you <em>feel<\/em> like an expert on the topic even though you\u2019ve only read one book. Because you already feel like an expert, you lose the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/what-is-incentive-meaning-and-definition-economics\/\">incentive<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/expand-your-knowledge\/\">expand your knowledge<\/a> and actually <em>become<\/em> an expert.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Social Positive Reinforcement &amp; &#8220;Reward&#8221; Neurochemicals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What are neurochemicals? In brief, your nervous system is made up of billions of neurons and neural pathways that transmit chemical information (neurochemicals) from one neuron to another. Kotler explains that these neurochemicals regulate your body and allow you to function. They also drive all of your decisions, behaviors, and habits by creating sensations that motivate you to move toward pleasure and away from pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ll briefly discuss the two reward neurochemicals generated through social positive reinforcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dopamine:<\/strong> Well-known for the role it plays in fueling addiction, dopamine also helps regulate cognitive functions, emotional responses, and physical reactions. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verywellhealth.com\/dopamine-5086831\">Deficient dopamine levels produce numerous symptoms, including cognitive impairment, muscle cramps, diminished balance, mood swings, and fatigue<\/a>. On the other hand, excessive dopamine levels contribute to stress, mania, aggression, hallucinations, and insomnia. Dopamine dysregulation is associated with mental health conditions such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. Therefore, healthcare professionals suggest seeking medical advice before attempting to manipulate the levels of dopamine in your system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Oxytocin:<\/strong> Commonly known as the \u201clove hormone,\u201d oxytocin plays a key role in various emotional, social, and cognitive processes, such as increasing sexual arousal and satisfaction, promoting positive communication, and improving social memory. However, research hasn\u2019t yet confirmed all of the different ways that dysregulated oxytocin levels can harm or benefit you. Ongoing research suggests that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verywellhealth.com\/what-is-oxytocin-5090160\">dysregulation of oxytocin in the brain can contribute to envy, aggression, and fear, as well as neuropsychiatric conditions<\/a> such as autism, schizophrenia, and eating disorders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are the benefits of social positive reinforcement in the brain?
