two, not one

I had a delightful conversation with my friend Kim over breakfast this morning.

For my dissertation, I have been reading literature on motivation, which is what Kim’s hugely interested in and has been spending many many hours on studying. She obviously knows more about motivation and gave me some great ideas.

Long story short, as we were talking, I brought up this idea of looking at intrinsic and extrinsic motivation existing on two separate continua, rather than making up two opposite ends of one continuum. And guess what, Kim had very similar view too!

I haven’t yet got a chance to delve more into literature and see if two continua idea makes sense. But I’m definitely going to spend some time on this!

Yay – another exciting idea. Yes, another idea that’s just added to ‘my 10000000 ideas to explore more’ list. ;p
