1. Welcome to the class: What are you good
at this morning? Prepared the breakfast for
yourself or your family, clean the whole
house, went to work, returned from walk walk the dog played with
your children, completely rearranged
your clothes, started some online
career or quit. You couldn't do that
without motivation. Even if you simply spend
the whole day in bad. You also did it because
of the motivation to rest or because of the lack
of motivation to get up. Our entire daily behavior
is driving by motivation. We need motivation for a lot of things
like getting out of bed and some bigger things like making a big and
successful career. Motivation affects
our daily lives, which is why is not so bad
to learn something about it. This is why I have created this class and I will take
you through the science of motivation and show you
some practical techniques that will help you understand
the concept of motivation. What motivates you
and motivates you. Why you give up how to motivate
yourself or your team, maintain motivation, and
achieve all your goals. This course can be used
by an individual to improve personal motivation,
performance, and success. And you can also use it
to motivate your team. If you are a business
owner, manager, leader, and entrepreneur, if
you are ready, we can start.
2. Class project: The project for this class is to apply techniques you will
learn during this class, you can pick one goal
that you have and you can try some techniques that I will show you
during this class. So your task used to apply learn techniques to achieve some goal.
3. How to understand motivation?: In simple words, motivation is the contrast effort
to achieve a goal. It is our inner strain that drives us both mentally
and physically to do what is
necessary to achieve some of our ideas,
goals, or dreams. According to the definition of American Psychological
Association, motivation is the impact that gives purpose
or direction to behavior and operates
in humans at a conscience or
unconscious level. In the Miriam
Webster dictionary, we can read that motivation is the condition of being
eager to act or walk. The act or process of getting
someone a reason for doing something and force or influence that causes
someone to do something. Motivation can be presented
as a set of several elements. First, one, purpose, reason
for wanting to do something. Second, goal, third, activity, behavior and for
satisfaction. In practice. It looks like this
purpose reason, I would like to be healthy goal, have a healthy diet, activity, behavior, going to
the grocery store, preparing healthy
diet, healthy food, healthy meals, and satisfaction. I feel satisfied, healthy
and proud of myself.
4. 7 stages of motivation: In order for a person to be motivated to take
certain actions, there must be an unmet
need in specific goal. Now we're going to talk
about stages of motivation. Stage number one, the
occurrence of discomfort. Someone understands that he lacks something to
organize a normal life. Second stage, someone is looking for opinions to get
read off discomfort. The person considers
options for satisfaction, superior control, replacement, and
switching to other needs. His drives to get read off the growing discomfort in
the simplest and fairs way. Goal-setting, a person
must understand what he is doing and what
the outcome will be. Octave actions, strong
impulses and needs oriented activity
anticipated by regard. By achieving a certain results, a person receives our VD in the form of
meeting their needs. As an additional reward, he can receive positive emotions and the joy of
fulfilling the dream. Closing requirements. If the person has chosen the ride behavioral strategy and performed all the
necessary actions, the need will disappear permanently or for a
certain period of time. So when you think about
yourself, your actions, and your behavior, think about these seven stages
of motivation. If you pay attention
clearly, you may be, we'll see that some, the stage is a
problematic for you. Maybe you wait at
the stage number three when you have to understand why you
should do something, when you have to create
a specific goal, when you notice occurrence of discomfort to check
these seven stages, and you can use it to plan your actions and
to actually plan how you will maintain
your motivation, what goal you will set, and how you can
actually maintain the behavior that is needed
for goal achievement. Think about
anticipated required, how you will be rewarded after the
results of your actions. Think about an additional yvd. You can receive some
positive emotions. List all the positive
emotions that you will feel when you actually finish
the action that is needed.
5. The purpose of motivation & 3 types of motives: Now let's answer
on the question, what is the purpose of motivation
is really important to understand purpose of motivation so we can be able to manage it. Motivational serves us as a tool to meet our
human motifs and needs. Motivation is based
on biological, social, and personal motifs. What are the types
of motivation? We are going to talk about
basic categorization. Number 1. First of all, motivation has an existential purpose
and helps us survive. It helps us satisfied our
basic biological needs. Instincts and motifs
such as hunger, thirst, need for sleep,
and sexual motivation. Our organism is
fascinating and is constantly trying to achieve
homeostasis balance, which is primarily achieved by satisfying biological motifs. Number two, social motives force us to connect
with other people. This motive comes from the
human need for attachment, which is most clearly
seen in babies. Babies are happy when they have physically close contact
with their mother. It's because we feel a need to belong to a group
in pre-history. Not belonging to a
group would mean that you will
possibly not survive. The interesting thing
that we can mention here, and you've probably
heard that if you were watching some of
my previous courses, is the hormone of
happiness oxytocin, that is rise always when we have a close connection
with other people. Besides oxytocin, there is a serotonin and you've
probably heard of that one. Serotonin is also rise when we have a contact
with other people, actually when we are
approved by other people. So be social means a lot to us. That's why connection is
really important for us, even if we don't know
the signs and behind it, we still have that strong social multi-use and
they have a reason. We should pay attention to them. Personal motif, It's
personal motives are those that makes us stand out, improve our personal value. Whether it's to gain respect
from other people or to prove ourselves that our
existence makes sense. The motive of achievement
makes us educate ourselves, progress and be
better at what we do. These motifs also
have their roots in distant past when it was really important to stay in
a group for survival. One logical question
that occurs here is, do we really do everything
just to survive? The answer from the
science is yes. Motivation serves us to satisfy our needs,
instincts, and motifs. However, the point is to really enjoy that journey
in the modern world, there is no danger that a tiger will eat us if we
separate from the group, but we still have that strong motif that
pushes us to socialize. The important fact is that
when motifs are not satisfied, we experience frustration
and conflicts. Motifs satisfaction is
not always successful. There are sometimes
obstacles that prevent the
satisfaction of motifs. It leads to frustration. Conflict occurs when there
is a conflict between two motifs that work in
different directions. Sometimes when you feel really
nervous and frustrated, maybe you should think
about this fact. Maybe some of your crucial
and main motifs are not met.
6. How to to motivate your team/or yourself - Theories of motivation: Scientists have studied
our behavior for years to answer the question of
what motivates us and why. In this lesson, we
will talk about the most important
theories of motivation. Henry Landsberg, the
how're tone effect. In this experiment, it
was found that people work better when
they are supervised. Employees are motivated
to work better because of the more
attention paid to them. So we are more motivated when we know that someone is
watching our work, that someone is going
to check our work. And that's because of that motif that we talked
about in a previous lesson. We want to be approved. You want our work and our
personality to be valued. So if you're an individual
and if you are working on some project that you
really and truly law like, for example, if you're
writing a book, you can inspire yourself. When you say to yourself against someone is going to read this, someone is going to value this. If you are a manager, a leader, if you have to work
with some team, you can motivate them. When you literally let them know that you are
watching their work, that you are paying attention, that you care what they are doing and how they're
doing their jobs. Herzberg's theory
of two factors, also known as the theory of
dual factors or the theory of motivational Hygiene
deteriorate was given by psychologists
Frederick Herzberg. He asked 200 accountants and engineers about
their feelings about their war and found
that there are two factors affect employee
satisfaction and motivation. First, motivational factors, anything that
motivates employees, for example, recognition, a
sense of belonging to a team, and second, hygiene factors. Salary, company policy, benefits, relationships
with coworkers. If these factors are negative,
they satisfaction results. Expectation theory. According to this theory, people choose their
behavior based on the consequences they
expect to produce. If we expect a reward, we will be more motivated
to do something. There are elements of
this theory, expectation. We believe that our effort will lead us to our desired outcome. Bouvard, we believe that we will be rewarded if we
met expectations. Value. The value is set as a reward, like money or sense of value. In order to become motivated
and maintain motivation, we have to think about
these three elements. We have to consider
our expectations. And we can use imagination
here and visualization. If you clearly see the expectation that
makes us feel happy, makes us feel positive feelings. We will be motivated
when we think about the VD and the value. Set expectations, set the
reward and set the value. These three elements
will help you to maintain your motivation. Theory of three-dimensional
anti-abortion. This theory assumes that
people want to know the reasons for their
desires and motifs. People want to know why
they want something. Attribution is the way
people interpret events. And that interpretation can later affect future motivation. For example, if a
student accesses that he failed the exam due to
insufficient effort, he will have more motivation
to learn better next time. But if the student
thinks that he failed the exam due
to external factors, for example, he estimated that the professor
does not like him. The student will not be
motivated to learn more. So our motivation depends
on the lock is off control. Locus of control is basically
our point of view in answering the question why
this happened to me when we speak about internal
locus of control. Then we say, I fail or I succeeded because of myself,
my personal characteristics. If we speak about external
locus of control, that means that I will
probably say, okay, I've failed or I succeeded because something
that is outside because some other person or because the simple
life situation. So think about this term, locus of control and this theory and try to find
out what motivates you more when you use the internal or external
locus of control. Cloud Barnard's
optimal level theory. This theory describes
homeostasis by satisfying our motifs. We strive for a
state of balance and hemostasis and that
causes pleasure. So basically we feel all that needs and we must satisfy them and meet them in order to
feel the balance of our life. Maslow's here HE of motifs,
the American psychologists, the upper hand Maslow constructed
a here heat of motifs consisting of five levels and use it to explain human needs, instincts, motivation,
and behavior. He explained with this
pyramid that there is a here he and priority
in meeting our needs. Needs at lower levels
must be met in order for needs at higher
levels to be activated. This pyramid consists
five groups of needs, from the lowest to the highest. Physiological needs,
needs for security, needs for belonging,
the need for respect, the need for self-fulfillment. Abraham Maslow setup the
theory of human needs in 1943 in the article theory
of human motivation. So if we want to work on our personal growth and
our self-fulfillment, we first must satisfy the
needs at the lower levels. And also, this pyramid can
be used like a tool and actual blueprint or
representation plan for happy and balanced life. If we are able to satisfy in and meet all the needs
on all five levels, we will for sure feel joy, happiness, and
positive feelings.
7. 2 types of motivation: There are two main
types of motivation, and in this lesson, you will learn about them. We have intrinsic
internal motivation and extrinsic
external motivation. Now let's first talk about
the intrinsic motivation. Intrinsic motivation is actually self motivation,
internal motivation. It starts when we
take some steps and actions without the need
for external factors. The goals are in
our personality. Inner motivation forces us
to do what interests us, what we truly enjoy, what fulfills us, and
what is important to us. This activity immediately brings us pleasure, pleasant feelings. This activity is our own reward
angle. At the same time. In contrast, external
motivation is actually the tool we use to achieve
some personal goal. Sources of internal motivation are the need to connect
with other people, the need for competence and
the need for independence. Some examples are doing sports or hobbies
because you enjoy them. The sibling at work because
you believe in what you do. And it is important
to you cleaning the house because you're
like that, going on trips. Because you enjoy learning
a skill that interests you because that is how you
achieve self-actualization, taking care of the children
because that makes you happy. So when we speak about
internal motivation, everything we do is slowly for the purpose of making us happy and bringing us
pleasant feelings, everything that is in line with our personality, no
external motivation. External motivation means
that something that is outside of us moves
us to action. We want a revert or we
want to avoid punishment. We clearly see the
application of external motivation
in schooling, as well as in parenting, where reward and
punishment are used as motivation to
manage behavior. External motivation
serves us as a tool by which we achieve a goal and receive rewards such as money, fame, respect from others. And similar examples of external motivation are
playing a sport or some hobby. Just for our VD. Learning a new skill because your job requires it
cleaning the house because you don't
want your family to complain doing some
art to sell your work. Everything that must
be done in order to obtain something that
we require or desire. To summarize, we can say internal motivation
is what I want to do, and external is what
I have or need to do. Your task is to write your intrinsic and extrinsic
motivation sources.
8. Why do we quit?: Okay, let's answer one
important question. Why do we quit? What are the factors
of the motivation? The motivation is a state
in which we do not have enough will and energy to perform the tasks necessary
to achieve the goal. This condition leads to arm productivity and
dissatisfaction with ourselves, which affects all
aspects of our lives. Some factors that leads to demotivation are we do
not have a clear goal. Our goal seems too
far or unachievable. It seems to ask
that we do not have enough capacity to
achieve the goal. We do not see the purpose. It is not clear to
us why we would do something and what is the
reward that we will receive? We do not have a routine
or organization. We are overwhelmed. The space in which we live or
work is overcrowded and we do not have motivation to
work when we are in it. Motivation is all
about habit change. If we need to be
motivated for something, that means it's not something
that we regularly do. And how it change is really hard, low frustration,
tolerance. We become really easily
frustrated when we are not able to achieve
something that we want. So we should practice these
frustration tolerance. When we have the higher level
of frustration tolerance, we can be more successful
in goal achievement and we can maintain
our motivation in accordance with the pain
pleasure principle. We are created to avoid
unpleasant things and we strive to achieve something
that will gives us IP positive feelings. But everything we do have that part which we
really don't like. And that's why we have to practice low
frustration tolerance. We must understand that
even if we do the job that we love the most in the world
and we have the clear goal, we know what the reward is. We have to perform some tasks
that we don't like so much. So we can think about
that book, eat that frog, and do the hardest things when
we are the most motivated.
9. Exercise: Your enemies & your powers: It is very important to
know our limiting beliefs, negative patterns and
thinking patterns. What the motivates us when
I know what makes me quit? What is my enemy? Who is my enemy? I will be able to
fight against it. Who is your enemy
to believe you're not competent or able
to achieve something. Low self-esteem, low
frustration, tolerance, lack of self-discipline,
low organizational skills. Let's make that list
and think about the powers you can use
to fight that enemies. In the workbook,
feeling the page, my enemies and my powers. If you can't come up
with some powers, watch the next lesson where
we will talk about it.
10. How not to quit?: Now it's time to
find out how not to create ten ways to
maintain motivation. First of all, I must
mention the fact that you don't need motivation
to physically act. You can decide to act without
waiting for motivation. Motivation can occur
during the process. So stop overthinking and
just do what you have to do. Just start the action and
motivation will occur. Number two, if the first
thing is not working, here comes the next
one, get excited. That is the point. Motivation is
basically excitement. When we are excited
about something that means that we are
really motivated to do it. So you can imagine
yourself achieving your goal and that will makes you really
excited about it. Actually, here, you will create the clear vision and you
will actually see dairy VD, three set small goals. You will not became overwhelmed when
something is difficult, we give up, change
the belief I am not capable of
achieving great things. You remember when the
goal seems too far, we tend to quit. So break your big goal into small goals for check
whether there is a fear of success and a fear of responsibility behind giving
up things a little bit. Why do you give up? Do give up because you are afraid because you want success, but you're afraid,
which you will do once you achieve success, or you are afraid
that you will fail. And all those negative feelings that you will
feel if you fail. Are you afraid of
responsibility? Just think about your reasons. Number five, remind
yourself why? Why is the crucial thing here? We must have clear why. The reason, the goal, why we do something. What is one main thing that
pushes me to use something? What is my main goal when I speak about some action
that I have to do, exercise, postponing
the pleasure. So this will help you with
low frustration tolerance. This is a tool for low
frustration tolerance. When you set small goals, set some Lily
rewards after each, and that will keep
your motivation. Listen to motivational music. Okay, this sounds like
a cliche, but it's not, it's really when you listen to motivational music or when you listen to some people podcasts, YouTube channel, some online
course that inspires you. It really helps you to become motivated and to
maintain the motivation, find motivation in others, other people inspire
us more than anything. If you are not good
in visualization and if you cannot imagine
yourself achieving the goal, you can watch someone else
who already did that. But you have to remember
that that person who's successful now and you
want to become like him. That person was also
at the beginning at 1. Don't compare yourself
with that person. Just use it to create that your future
self on your reward. For example, if you are
starting with training, you can watch someone who is in the fitness for five years
in some personal trainers. So inspires self. We are visual creatures
when we see something that's the most powerful way
we can become motivated. And just like that we
become to the next tool, NLP exercise, it's
called Future meet. And it's basically that imagine yourself
doing the action. If it's not enough, imagination doesn't motivate
you think about how you will feel when you finish
it and you can go forward. Think about how you
will feel if you repeat this action for
three months, For example, if you exercise or if you
write every day for one month, or just go, go farther
and farther as long as you need
to feel motivated. And number ten, make
a vision board so we can put all of these
tools in the vision board. Vision is really
important, like I said, when we see something that is the most powerful way
to motivate ourselves. And now let's go to the
next lesson where I will share the motivation
and success formulas.
11. Motivation and success formulas: I have to motivation and success formulas that
I will share with you. The first one is mine
and the second one is from Jim Quigley,
book without borders. When I was working
on motivation, when I was researching, when I was creating this course, I wanted to summarize everything in one simple
sentence or formula. And here it is. Clear vision plus determination
plus self-discipline. So clear vision is
the first step, is the most important. We must have really
clearly in our mind, why do we want to do something? What is the reward
that we will achieve? For example, some
positive feelings. And when we are going to do so, we have to create a
plan, actual plan. When we have the plan, then we can say it's
not just the wish, is the plan how we are going to achieve something
determination. We have to really and truly decide and to be
determined about this, to strongly decided, we are really going to do,
finally, do this. What do we have to do?
The third element is self-disciplined person who achieves goals
very productively. Not a person who is
suddenly motivated. Anytime it's the person
who is discipline. Discipline. There is no success, there is no productivity. We can have a clear
vision and we can have the determination. But the self-discipline is
the element that will force us to actually stand up
and do what we have to do, even if we don't
have the motivation, but we have the discipline, we will stand up and we will
do what do we have to do? And then we will
see the results and the formula from Gene quakes
book Without Borders, purpose plus simple
little steps plus energy. So you must find the purpose
and that's your why. You should break the big goals
into small little steps. And you can really
pay attention. Where do you focus your energy?
12. Closing thoughts: Thank you so much for being here and
listening this course. I really hope this course helped you and I
really hope you will achieve your personal dreams and goals and feel motivated. I hope you'll learn how to
recognize what demotivated you and what motivates you and how to maintain motivation. And if you are a manager
or a leader or boss, I really hope this
class will help you to motivate your employees. Thank you once again, and take a look off Psalm, my other courses here.
