As young children, we have a great ability
to learn and to see past setbacks.
As we begin to
meet expectations created by our families, schools, and environment, the
motivation of our early years shifts from our goals to pleasing others,
and often our desire to learn suffers.
How can you motivate
yourself?
With this exercise, try to
- recognize your sense of discovery
- take responsibility for your learning
- accept the risks inherent in learning with confidence, competence,
and autonomy
- recognize that "failure" is success:
learning what doesn't work is on the same path
as learning what does work
- celebrate your achievement in meeting your goals
