shirgall Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 http://shreddedbyscience.com/why-fitspiration-is-killing-your-motivation/ This article is pretty long but delves deeply into intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, which was a fun topic here more than once. My favorite quote: How Can We Enhance Intrinsic Motivation?Put simply, anything that increases an individual’s feelings of competence, relatedness or autonomy – positive feedback on work, pointing out to someone that they’ve done well on something because of a decision they made, and providing an environment for an activity that allows someone to feel connected to other people. Positive feedback is especially powerful if it is unexpected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
