Dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine are catecholamines that work together to create motivation and heighten focus.

“dopamine is actually the substrate by which epinephrin is made. Dopamine, the molecule is actually converted into epinephrin adrenaline and they work together like close cousins, dopamine and epinephrin in order to put us on a path of movement or if we are doing work, of mental movement toward a goal.”

“and you mentioned the catacol meines which um are dopamine epinephrine and norepinephrine”

“Dopamine and norepinephrine as collaborators because indeed they are and actually they're very neurochemically similar as well it actually just takes one chemical conversion to turn dopamine into norepinephrine so they are very similar they're like close cousins that work together to help us achieve a common goal that involves increased motivation focus and alertness”

“dopamine is one of the catacol amines it's it's part of a a group of cousin molecules um dopamine being one epinephrine also called adrenaline and norepinephrine also called nor adrenaline these are released both in the brain and body from the adrenals from in the case of norepinephrine from a brain area called the locus culus which releases norepinephrine in kind of a sprinkler likee manner into the brain although it can direct the release of norepinephrine as well and of course all this stuff is active and released from neurons in our body as well it's not a coincidence it can't be a coincidence that these three neurochemicals which by the way are very similar to one another and actually are manufactured from one another biochemically”
