What Dr. Hamilton can say in an Interview on
The Quit Trying Dilemma:
What is causing the “quit trying dilemma/epidemic” in our diet culture?
Dr. Hamilton can explain.
-
- There is an area in our brain that kills our motivation called the habenula.
- The habenula has been activated by previous failures and the kill switch motivation and triggers an anti-rewarding pathway.*
- This has caused many people to stop trying diets or working out or give up on new year’s resolutions.
Solutions
-
- If you don’t want to trigger the habenula, be curious, find things that are doable and enjoyable, and if something does not work, do not repeat it but make an adjustment.
- Understand the process and realize you need to keep switching to something else when one process isn’t working.
- Have a designer mindset. Tweak and try different things but never fail.
- Get out of the short-term headspace. . . it takes a long time.
- The Call to Action: to have a new mindset—a creative mindset—and be fueled by curiosity, not just motivation. Be able to design your healthier lifestyle to how it fits you; We need to understand that this takes time. It’s always a lifestyle change.
