This @jamesclear quote speaks volumes regarding the physiological response that occurs when individuals are successful at making their habits a strong part of their lives. The brain literally releases dopamine in response to completing a habit which then increases motivation to continue with this habit!
How does this relate to athletes? According to Roelands et al. (2008), dopamine “increases athletes' attention toward rewarding goals, and strengthens their reaction to the positive feelings these can provide.”
It’s a win-win! Take time in developing your goals and creating strong methods of establishing habits. You’ll be amazing at how your mind and body respond!
