The Psychology of Flex
Hedonic Adaptation
The happiness from new things gradually diminishes. This is "hedonic adaptation" — experience spending adapts more slowly than material spending, keeping you happy longer.
The Science of Self-Reward
Appropriate self-reward increases motivation to achieve goals. The key is to clearly define what "appropriate" means for you.
