Morty Lefkoe said " I'd like to propose a heretical notion: that there is
no such thing as external motivation!!"
I agree. All that we ever get from the outside world is information. How I
act upon it is my choice.
I suggest that a change of language would help to change the thinking. If
we were to talk about "intrinsic" as motivation and "extrinsic" as
incentives or incitement , things fall into place nicely.
