- What motivates you extrinsically? What are your intrinsic motivation? How do you balance extrinsic and intrinsic motivation in your life?
— from Goals, Action & Defining Success (Goal/Action/Success/Motivation) · On Leadership, articles from Harvard Business Review
In the book
The lasting fuel is three things: autonomy — the freedom to direct your own work; mastery — the deep human drive to get better and better at something that matters; and purpose — the sense of serving something larger than yourself. Learn to tell your intrinsic motives from your extrinsic ones, and lean, wherever you can, on the intrinsic. The real motivators, the researchers found, are the intrinsic conditions of the work itself — challenge, recognition, responsibility, and the feeling of meaningful contribution — far more than the external "hygiene" factors like pay and conditions, which only breed dissatisfaction when they are lacking. — Goals, Action & Defining Success (Goal/Action/Success/Motivation)
