Do you know how to improve your own sense of motivation?
Why are some people more motivated than others? Is it possible to become more intrinsically motivated over time? What do we do when our potential doesn't seem to be matching up to our outcomes?
In this week's episode, Denise Cooper interviews Pamela Brooks-Richards for how we can use neuroscience research on motivation to move closer towards work that lights us up. Brene Brown points out that dissonance is the opposite of integrity. Emotions like shock and anger are quick-burning emotions, with a short-half life. Meanwhile, dissonance will not disperse from our emotional landscape until it is dealt with. Join us as we deep dive into Get It Done by Sam Bennet and Atlas of the Heart by Brene Brown.
If you're wondering how to understand what motivates you in the working world, this is the episode for you.
