The podcast discusses the two types of motivation, intrinsic and extrinsic. Intrinsic motivation is defined by three subgroups: mastery, autonomy, and purpose. Tapping into these subgroups can lead to improved engagement, creativity, and prevention of burnout. Studies show that athletes who rely more on intrinsic motivation are more consistent in their motivation. Creating habits out of motivation can help to make good decisions without thinking and create a lifestyle of improvement. The overjustification effect suggests that the introduction and subsequent lessening of external rewards can affect a person's internal desire to perform a task. The speaker is creating a program that encapsulates these concepts.
