Internal motivator

from The MISeducation of SISTIR Hosted by Speaking Sis

In this episode, Markeshe talks about going from external motivation to internal motivation. There are two types of internal motivation: that which arises out of direct enjoyment for engaging in a given task, and that which comes from a sense of internalized obligation or responsibility to engage in a task. In order to fully understand internal, or intrinsic, motivation it is necessary to gain a working knowledge of its conceptual opposite: external motivation. External motivation is the result of external reward or incentive. External motivation occurs when a person acts in order to obtain something, such as praise or tangible rewards. Markeshe learns to find her motivation to thrive, to live, to press forward from within. Song- Fight song by Rachel Platten
