Direct rewards A win or lose?

in #psycology5 years ago

We want our reward direct and the importance we place on historic outcomes relative to present outcomes.
Todays sociaty is also highly focused on time.
The value of said time and the result of reward we get per time we spent on said subject/task
Harsh fact-; we want now rather than later.
Evolutionary seen, we instinctly seize the reward at hand, and resisting this instinct is hard.
History has actually given humans the strong desire for immediate rewards.

Delaying gratification can and most often are a effect of growing up, with menthalety of not trusting anyyyone to forfill their task as promised...
Kids, teens brain are set to tend to be impulsive.
They cant grasp the time delay to get their reward.
Experiencing life that bear lessons about time, its effect with delay and the effect of direct validation; can change a persons time preferences..
We are geneticly are hardwired to want things AsAp & it’s a powerful force.
Nothing wrong with wanting or needing things, this is how we grow as humans, the need / wish for things or and experiences, in a timely manner can be good.
Today we’re constantly plugged in !
Social media was suppose to give us connection with others from a distance or connection to others that live far away...
This gives us instant ability to upload photos from the family party, videos form the holiday, photos and status updates and so on.
And shabang we get rewarded; in instant feedback from our social followers. We have the ability to make things happen without having to wait.

The new iphone, laptop or what ever gadget we use.. ur devices are ubiquitous, our connectedness is constant and never ending.

No patience IS required.


Da brain

Higher intelligence have a better future-focused tendency. Planning involves the executive brain, the prefrontal cortex; is linked to intelligence. Higher intelligence tend to be better at shifting attention away from the affective properties of rewards.
Can be why individuals with lower intelligence often have financial hardship, and also struggel with their levels of financial asset
Distress causes a behavioral shift toward immediate improvements in mood, and makes us take rash desitions

Time

We all know the utter pain of waiting for something; it seems to go painfully slow when you find something boring, but fly when you are having fun.
How we experience time is and will alwasy be precived diffrently; just as the diffrent food we like, preferences for food items is diffrent among people & so IS preferences for time.

Intresting thow IS- The wish for instant gratification do NOT stop once you get something.!!
A side effect of instant gratification is that it generait hormons that wish for instant gratification.
In other words, once you get some level of instant gratification, you will expect that same instantaneous response in the future

It’s true that instant gratification is a growing need throughout our society, people are starting to just expect things on demand - ordering goods with next day delivery, sharing their life on social media for instant approval from peers. But is it doing us any good, what is there to look forward to if it’s always just happening straight away.

I also think we strive for less do to this, No need to push forward any longer...
Hm hmmmm

Oh the PC crowd would hate this. How dare you even suggest that there is a possible link between lower intelligence and financial hardship hahaha!!

I agree. But I do think intelligence can be built upon. People can be rewired to be more open to learning. However I'm not even sure how you can do that lol
