The most harmful hidden addiction you should know

Welcome to Gokhan's Channel
Topic:
Today I will talk about How to cope with the hidden addiction everyone has?
In this video, I am explaining the most harmfull addiction in our life. Unfortunately, more or less we have this bad habit and it affects our live negatively. The reason of our inconsistency and incoherency is this hidden addiction.
Ok, I am not gonna make you wait longer. What is the most harmful addiction in our life? The most harmful addiction in our life is instant gratification desire. Even if we take a small action, we expect its return immediately. However, most of the results ensue after consistent long term efforts.
On the other hand, because of the instant gratification addiction, our attention span became less and less, based on the recent scientific research average attention span is less than 9 seconds. Think about that the most people can only give their attention to a specific point only 9 seconds then starts to look for another instant pleasure. This explains the reason of short form social media like youtube shorts, Instagram stories and tiktok is so much popular.
This kind of short form social media posts causes phone addiction. The reason of this addiction, as I mentioned above is instant satisfaction, which means they get a quick reward or pleasure from checking their notifications, messages, likes, or comments. This creates a cycle of dopamine release in the brain, which reinforces the behavior and makes it harder to stop. Phone addiction or social media addiction can have negative effects on mental health, such as anxiety, depression, loneliness, or low self-esteem. It can also interfere with productivity, sleep quality, and social relationships.
Because of the cycle of dopamine release in the brain, most people do not have enough patience to do the same thing everyday if they don’t see the results. This kind of instant pleasure pursuit makes people short term result oriented. That’s the reason why most people do not have long term goals and long-term vision. People would like to be wealthy and healthy but they do not take action in accordance with their goals. They have desire to have results but not patience to take required actions. This leads to frustration, disappointment, and loss of motivation. However, if you would like to have world class success, you should be able bear to do boring things that the other people cannot do long period of time. For instance: Alex Hormozi, now he is very famous in enterprenuership environment but he is famous for roughly only 1 year. However he has been recording business podcasts for 6 years and he confessed that his podcasts were listened by nobody at the first 4 years. Think about that you are recording podcast every week regularly but nobody listens for 4 years. You are doing the same thing for 4 years without any results. Now his podcasts are at the top ten podcasts in business category. As another example; As a giant company Amazon was unprofitable company for ten years. They focused on the growth. During 10 years they completed warehouse investments then the company became profitable. Please think about the vision and the actions based on that vision behind this kind of high-end results.
Instead of focusing on the outcome, we should focus on the process and enjoy the journey. We should also celebrate our small wins and appreciate our progress. By doing this, we can develop a growth mindset, which means we believe that we can improve our skills and abilities through hard work and feedback. A growth mindset can help us overcome challenges, learn from failures, and achieve our goals.
Enjoy!
