Train Your Brain for the Long Game

I am proud to share that this month, I accomplished a goal of a tarot lesson that combines movie archetypes and tarot.

It took me over 30 hours to create in many sessions where I had to choose to sit down and write, then edit, then prep tech tools and lights, then film, find clips, then edit, then edit, then edit some more.

When we stay vigilant on a long-term, self-motivated goal, it can be very disconcerting and even physically uncomfortable at first.

Over time, our brain gets the “real dopamine” of meaningful accomplishments, and final completion gives us a deeply satisfying continual flow.
