The Motivation Factor: the Science Behind What Drives Us and How to Use It to Succeed


Book Description

The subconscious mind, a powerful yet often overlooked part of our psyche, significantly influences our daily thoughts, emotions, and actions. It's the driving force behind many of our automatic reactions and deeply ingrained habits. By delving into the science of motivation, this book offers a comprehensive understanding of how we can harness the potential of our subconscious to achieve our aspirations. Learn how motivation shapes our behaviors and how, with the right knowledge, we can channel this force to foster positive transformations in our lives. 'The Motivation Factor' not only demystifies the science behind our inner drives but also provides actionable insights to guide you towards your personal definition of success.




Drive


Book Description

The New York Times bestseller that gives readers a paradigm-shattering new way to think about motivation from the author of When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing Most people believe that the best way to motivate is with rewards like money—the carrot-and-stick approach. That's a mistake, says Daniel H. Pink (author of To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth About Motivating Others). In this provocative and persuasive new book, he asserts that the secret to high performance and satisfaction-at work, at school, and at home—is the deeply human need to direct our own lives, to learn and create new things, and to do better by ourselves and our world. Drawing on four decades of scientific research on human motivation, Pink exposes the mismatch between what science knows and what business does—and how that affects every aspect of life. He examines the three elements of true motivation—autonomy, mastery, and purpose-and offers smart and surprising techniques for putting these into action in a unique book that will change how we think and transform how we live.

Motivation A Key to Success


Book Description

One day when I was lazily sitting in my balcony, I saw a bird's nest in one corner of the balcony. I removed it and cleaned the balcony properly with the hope that the little bird would not dare to build its nest again. To my surprise, after few days, again I noticed the little bird, busy in collecting small pieces of straw, hay, dry leaves etc. for making her nest at the same place.




Intrinsic Motivation


Book Description

As I begin to write this Preface, I feel a rush of excitement. I have now finished the book; my gestalt is coming into completion. Throughout the months that I have been writing this, I have, indeed, been intrinsically motivated. Now that it is finished I feel quite competent and self-determining (see Chapter 2). Whether or not those who read the book will perceive me that way is also a concern of mine (an extrinsic one), but it is a wholly separate issue from the intrinsic rewards I have been experiencing. This book presents a theoretical perspective. It reviews an enormous amount of research which establishes unequivocally that intrinsic motivation exists. Also considered herein are various approaches to the conceptualizing of intrinsic motivation. The book concentrates on the approach which has developed out of the work of Robert White (1959), namely, that intrinsically motivated behaviors are ones which a person engages in so that he may feel competent and self-determining in relation to his environment. The book then considers the development of intrinsic motiva tion, how behaviors are motivated intrinsically, how they relate to and how intrinsic motivation is extrinsically motivated behaviors, affected by extrinsic rewards and controls. It also considers how changes in intrinsic motivation relate to changes in attitudes, how people attribute motivation to each other, how the attribution process is motivated, and how the process of perceiving motivation (and other internal states) in oneself relates to perceiving them in others.
