[00:00:00]What if the reason you can't focus isn't laziness, but a trap hidden inside your brain? Every notification, every short video, every tiny reward gives your brain dopamine. Dopamine isn't bad. It helps you feel excitement and motivation, but your brain loves easy rewards, and that's where the trap starts. One short video becomes five.

[00:00:22]Five videos become 30. Now your brain expects excitement every few seconds.
