How much are quick dopamine hits affecting your motivation and mental health?

In Episode 6 of Hack N' Tackle, Stuart "Hodgeythehack" Hodge and Daniel Glyde explore how habits like scrolling, gaming, comfort eating and constant phone use can become a cycle of instant gratification that leaves us less motivated and less engaged with the things that matter.

They share personal experiences and practical ways to break the cycle, build better habits and focus on long-term growth over short-term rewards. What feels good now isn't always what makes you feel good later.

Is motivation really enough to help you to get things done? In this episode of Hack N' Tackle, Stuart "Hodgeythehack" Hodge and Daniel Glyde explore why motivation can be unreliable, especially when you start negotiating with yourself. Whether it's skipping the gym, putting off a task or reaching for your phone instead of going to sleep, it's easy to convince yourself that "tomorrow" will be different. They discuss why discipline takes that negotiation out of the equation: turning the things you know you should do into non-negotiables. Over time, those small decisions become habits, routines and a way of life. Because you won't always feel motivated. Sometimes, you just need the discipline to do it anyway.

What happens when you keep pushing yourself until your body tells you to stop?

In this episode of Hack N' Tackle, Stuart "Hodgeythehack" Hodge and Daniel Glyde have a more personal conversation following Hodgey's experience of having a panic attack the previous week.

They talk about how poor sleep, bottled-up emotions and the pressures of work and everyday life can build up, and why taking time to step back and check in with yourself is so important.

At the heart of this episode is a simple message: prioritising yourself isn't selfish. Sometimes, looking after yourself has to come before work, stress and everything else competing for your attention.
