Leaders Eat Last

By Simon Sinek

  • Endorphin: The hormone that masks pain

  • Dopamine: The hormone that helps us accomplish things

  • Serotonin: The leadership hormone

  • Oxytocin: The love hormone

  • Endorphin and Dopamine - Selfish hormones

    • Dopamine - It rewards us with intense happiness every time we complete a task
    • Endorphins - disguise exhaustion and physical pain and can fool us mentally so that we can go further, even after significant physical efforts
    • When you finish an exercise feeling good, and the next day the whole body hurts? It did not hurt right away because of the released endorphin, which increased its performance
  • Serotonin and oxytocin - Altruistic hormones - Affect our social life, helping us relate to others
