Intrinsic Motivation
It covers activities for which there is no obvious reward but that provides happiness and fulfilment. People are internally
motivated to accomplish something because it gives them pleasure. They believe it is significant or what they are
learning is significant. Motive or goal-related incentives can fulfil a person's needs.
Extrinsic Motivation
It occurs as a result of external rewards or incentives. For example, employees who are hired on a contractual basis for an
extended period may become dissatisfied and quit the organisation as a result of a lack of motivation or incentives.
A Positive Outlook
A cheerful attitude makes people happy and aids in the formation and maintenance of relationships. It can even improve
one’s chances of success. Furthermore, it might assist the individual in making better selections. For people who retain
a positive or optimistic attitude in life, events and obstacles are more likely to succeed than those who have a negative
attitude. A positive mindset contributes to better mental and physical health.
Methods for Fostering a Positive Attitude
It takes time and work to cultivate a happy mindset. The following are some strategies for maintaining a positive attitude:
• Begin your day with a morning ritual. Say positive affirmations, smile frequently, and consider the chores to be
completed during the day.
• Fill the mind with positive thoughts by reading encouraging books, listening to music with uplifting lyrics, watching
inspiring movies, and so on.
• Take the initiative. A proactive individual determines how to feel regardless of what is going on around him/her or
what the day might bring.
• Concentrate on what is constructive and beneficial. Do not approach life with ‘issues.’ Approach it with a ‘solutions’
mindset.
• Failure teaches us valuable lessons. Consider what could have been done better and strive toward those goals.
• Learn to concentrate on the current moment. Anxiety over past and future occurrences is the main source of
negativity.
• Strive to achieve your ambitions and desires. Keep a positive attitude and work hard to attain your goals.
Think Positive Talk Positive Feel Positive
Here are some additional strategies to help you keep a positive attitude in the long run:
• Physical activity and fresh air: Students must maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Yoga, meditation, and deep breathing techniques all assist to increase blood
circulation and calm the body. Going on a stroll or playing in the park allows one
to obtain a lot of fresh air, that aids in being more active.
