🚀 Dopamine-friendly business එකක් හදමු

බොහෝ entrepreneurs start කරනවා with big energy. But 3 months later, they feel tired, demotivated, bored. එය dopamine level එක drop වෙන නිසා.

මේක avoid කරන්න හොඳ dopamine habits 5ක් දැන් බලමු.

1. Celebrate Small Wins – කුඩා ජයග්‍රහණ උත්සව කරමු!

“Don’t wait till you become a millionaire to celebrate.”

ඔබේ small achievements celebrate කරන්න. මෙය dopamine boost එකක් දෙයි.

Examples:

• First Instagram DM? → Post a story: “Yay! First customer question! 🥳”
• First Rs. 10,000 profit? → Treat yourself to coffee

Tip: Whiteboard එකක achievements list කරන්න.

2. Gamify Your Work – Work එක Game එකක් වගේ කරන්න

Gamification = game logic use කිරීම work එකට. මෙය fun & rewarding.

Try this system:

ඔබගේ brain එක මේ challenges accept කරනවා, dopamine එක increase වෙනවා.

3. Change Your Environment – Set eka change කරන්න

Brain එක novelty (අලුත් එකක්) වලට response කරනවා. Same table එකේ same view එකෙන් work කරද්දි boredom වැඩි වෙනවා.

Try this:

• Week එකේ 1 day – café එකක work කරන්න
• Balcony එකේ chair එකක් setup කරලා Instagram content plan කරන්න
• Market එකට ගිහින් product packaging ideas observe කරන්න

🧠 Novelty = new dopamine = new ideas = more motivation

4. Set Time-Based Goals – Mini Goals for Quick Wins

අපි long-term goals plan කරනවා: “This year, I want Rs. 1 million sales.”

But that’s too far away. Dopamine need quick wins. So break your goals.

Instead of: “I will write 10 blog posts this month.”
Try: “I will write one 300-word post in next 25 minutes.”

Time-boxed challenges brain එකට exciting!

5. Track Progress Visually – Visual එකට track කරන්න

Brain එකට visible progress දැක්කම satisfaction. You feel like: “Yes, I’m moving forward!”

Use a Kanban board with 3 columns:

• To Do
• In Progress
• Done

Every time you move a task to Done, dopamine boost! 🎯

Alternative Tools:

• Notion (Free and customizable)
• Sticky notes on wall
• Google Sheets tracker

✅ Internal Link Idea: ඔබේ Brand එකට හොඳ Logo එකක් Design කරන ආකාරය

🧘‍♀️ Dopamine Detox – බර වැඩෙද්දි Reset වෙන්න

Sometimes, too much from social media (Insta, TikTok, YouTube Shorts) causes low motivation.

Try a dopamine detox:

• Half a day: No social media
• Do physical work: gardening, walking, cleaning
• Let your brain breathe

Brain එක reset වෙනවා. Ideas return වෙනවා. Motivation auto-recharge වෙනවා.
