Self-determination theory <ul><li>“ Ask any kid why he plays ball and he’ll say because it’s fun, not because it will help him stay healthy when he’s 80. That’s the nature of intrinsic motivation, it’s something done for its own sake. </li></ul><ul><li>That doesn’t mean external rewards aren’t motivating. It’s that the motivation becomes dependent upon rewards, and if they’re not salient enough and not continuous enough, then the motivation will track that.” – Dr. Ryan </li></ul>

Repetition helps. </li></ul><ul><li>Relatedness – the activity connects you in some way to other people. </li></ul>

Intrinsic motivation <ul><li>“ What drives most people away from successfully achieving goals is mental abuse. </li></ul><ul><li>Successful programs are powered not by threats, intimidation or screaming, but by peoples’ natural passion for being successful. </li></ul><ul><li>And when it comes to motivation, internal passion trounces intimidation any day of the week.” </li></ul>
