Moving towards motivation or moving away from motivation which are you I am ?

Towards and away from motivation

There are two types of motivators. They are called towards motivation and away from motivation.

Another way of wording these two motivators could be pain and pleasure motivation, the moving away from motivation is moving you away from pain. The pleasure is the moving towards motivation.

Some of you might think that automatically you would be moving towards pleasure by moving away from pain, just to correct that immediately moving away from pain does not mean you are moving towards pleasure.

Forust because I move my hand away from something that is hot does not mean my hand is in a pleasure zone, it simply means that it is back to neutral. Now if I wanted to treat my hand to some pleasure I would probably order a massage for it, then I would have to go to the appointment and get it done. I would deliberately setup a situation where I have to move towards it. Just to make sure that you fully understand how this works here is an example that works both ways. Giving the same end result but with different motivations. Two men that I talked to that both have made millions as business men had different motivators when they started out.


Here is an example

Away from motivation

This is someone who has things to loose if they dont train, they are scared they are going to loose there family maybe even there life. They know there is going to be benefits but the primary motivator is loosing things. May they have had a stroke or heart attack, or even just negative comments from people even so they are move away from that pain.


Towards motivation

This is a person who can see the benefits and can see what they are going to gain, they taste, feel and see them selfs thin. They are not scared they will slip back into bad habits They just do it becasue the want to.

So which are you I know what I am?


I am moving away from type. I need to be scared I am going to loose everything in order to get out and run. This this why I like people to know what Im up to and who I am accountable to.


What are you?
