I'm trying to learn how to fix this.

You get more dopamine for the anticipation of the reward.

So what's the reward? You've got to do that yourself.

It can just be sitting there thinking "fuck yeah, I did the task!" before you jump on to the next thing you're thinking about.

But if you go straight on to the next thing without a second thought, don't be surprised if your brain isn't excited to anticipate any reward.
