What about internal validation

Work out->feel better

Isn’t that a sense of accomplishment plus the dopamine released in the body?

Yeah that too but i assume it also gives validation in that you are doing the right thing

If that makes sense

Sense of accomplishment = internal validation

Acknowledgement from your peers = external validation ?

Id say proof to personal truth and ego.

Did i do the right thing ? Yes because x

Hey you are so strong, nice i am doing the right thing

I’m not sure I understand the prood to personal truth and ego. You mean showing to yourself that you can do something?

If we take the example of training consistently. Let’s say you’re doing your 900th skiing training. You already know you’re able to do it. What are you proving to yourself?

Thats true.

I mean more internal truth statements about yourself

I am strong, x is evidence

I know i am good on skies, 900 trips proof that

Ok I understand
