0:00.0	Now, our second area where people get stuck, the second mind pit is what we call treading water.
0:05.7	And treading water, I use this analogy, because I'll never forget when I was 15, we had swimming classes as part of our physical education.
0:13.3	And part of it is we had to bring a big jacket and a beanie and big, you know, what are they called?
0:20.2	Tracksuit pants and sneakers and jump in the water.
0:23.4	And we had to spend 60 minutes just treading water,

1:12.6	The end is fun.
1:13.6	We get a shot of dopamine.
1:14.6	The middle bit is where we get bored because we don't have this dopamine hit that's keeping us going.
1:19.6	We have this almost dopamine deficiency.
1:22.6	And because we live in a society where we crave that so much and technology has done this to us, it's terrible.
1:28.8	We get bored and then we see that boredom as a sign, okay, well, maybe this isn't what I should
