If you are the one who wants to max out your intrinsic motivators so you can harness this kind of power so first Identify where you currently stand with each of the intrinsic motivator.
Curiosity: To boost up curiosity motivator you need 2 things.
1. Leverage from learning: When you learn something it has a positive impact upon your work.
2. Immediate feedback from learning: Seeing the applied learning ideally in real time.
For the curiosity motivator to be high learning something and applying it to your work, something meaningful.
2.Mastery: Looking back at the last month to what degree did you feel the desire to endlessly at the skill set that’s required, to make a difference to your ability to succeed. Identify all the skills and sub skills that will advance your long term goals. Practice the skill at the edge of your comfort zone and correct your mistakes until you habituate new behaviour.
3. Autotelicity: Spontaneously dive into the core activities without any obligation. You can ask yourself. What are you craving to do ?
Don’t focus solely on what you like to do in and of itself instead consider a simpler question
What am I good at ?
You are naturally much better at somethings. If you do things you are good at over time you will forge autotelicity within those activities.
4. Purpose: Even if there is a glimmer of work that you connect with in your current work here is how to amplify it. Start by distilling your life’s mission into one laser focused sentence.
5. Autonomy: What is in your control,something which you choose.
Even if you are doing something of low autonomy by relating to a bigger journey that you are shaping and controlling yourself. 2nd way is Exercisable Autonomy: You can bounce at any moment and get what you want. Let me know in the comments Upgrade to share more contents like this
