Answer: Endorphins

Explanation: Endorphins are chemicals secreted by the brain also known as neurotransmitters that send electrical signals inside the nervous systems.

The factors that initiate the secretion of endorphins are stress and pain.

When endorphins are secreted they reduce feelings of pains, and in runners that cause a phenomenon called " Runners high" which allows runners to keep running without feeling pain or stress.

As in the above scenario, Marie's goal is to clear the total mess of her dorm room. Her sister helps her by assigning small sub-goals to reach Marie's task. She tells her to start with a sub-goal of putting dirty clothes in the hamper. When that goal is achieved, a next sub-goal of putting away books and papers is taken over. Hence, these sub-goals will eventually make Marie complete her goal.
