“You can do what you want, but you cannot want what you want.”
This is such an eye-opening quote!
Sure, we can go after whatever we want, but…
What we want is often shaped by society, our unique experiences and pure evolution. Most of which are not in our control.
Everyone will have unique experiences with society. What doesn’t change is how all of us have evolved over the years.
Our wants and desires are all the same. It is just that modern society allows us to express them in many forms.
For example, we are wired to chase the dopamine rush in our brains. To get that rush, some choose Instagram reels, Netflix, and ice cream, while others are in pursuit of success, achievements, etc.
Doesn’t matter what is being done, in the end, it is all for a few sparks of dopamine 🙂
This makes studying human behaviour so important.
Understanding how humans work holds key to success in all professions. I wonder why it is not taught in schools! (to everybody)
