Share your thoughts here, it's all good.
If you enjoy a biscuit, like the feeling you get from it, then you can just have another...and another...and another. It's so easy to chase those feel-good chemicals in the brain when you have a simple way of keeping the momentum going.
If you surprised yourself somehow, and you enjoyed that pleasant feeling of that surprise, then by its very nature, it would be completely impossible to repeat that exact feeling (compared to repeating the feelings you get from eating one easily-accessible biscuit after another). It would be impossible because it would be impossible to surprise yourself. You can't plan to surprise yourself, otherwise it wouldn't be a surprise.
If for some reason, you don't just intuitively accept this in the depths of your subconscious Being (because it's so obvious, to the extent that such a concept was wired in to the Human DNA eons ago), then you could possibly fixate on achieving the exact positive feeling, but you'd continually come up against the fact that you're trying to answer an obviously unanswerable question. In the worst case scenario, it would never dawn on this person that what they're fixating on isn't possible, so they'd go on trying to think of ways to 'surprise themselves', which isn't possible and it would probably send them in to a negative spiral if they couldn't get a grip on themselves.
