Ep. 231: [Book Review] Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us, by Daniel Pink

In this episode, I share my overview of the book 'Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us' by Daniel Pink. The book is focused on motivation and especially highlights the importance of intrinsic motivation as it relates to following through and staying focused on a specific outcome. As an entrepreneur, this content will help you understand how to set meaningful goals and continue to stay motivated through tough times. I also emphasize the concept of mastery and how you can apply this in your business to see longterm success and fulfillment.  Takeaways: Intrinsic motivation is more effective than extrinsic motivation. The three components of intrinsic motivation are autonomy, mastery, and purpose. Mastery is a mindset, a pain, and an asymptote. Identifying what you want to master can help you stay focused in your business. Setting goals with intrinsic motivation and assessing actions can lead to greater progress and fulfillment. Staying motivated requires tapping into your intrinsic motivation and embracing the journey of mastery.
