whenever dopamine rises, so does your motivation
: Dopamine compels you to seek, explore, and
take action: “Dopamine-energized, this mesolimbic SEEKING system, arising from the
ventral tegmental area (VTA), encourages foraging, exploration, investigation, curiosity,
interest and expectancy. Dopamine fires each time the rat (or human) explores its
environment. . . . I can look at the animal and tell when I am tickling its SEEKING system
because it is exploring and sniffing.” For more, see Karin Badt, “Depressed? Your
