At school I am learning a lot about therapy, talking through situations, being neutral, figuring out what motivates people and how to get them to see it. Everyone in class has to go through these exercises for ourselves and it has proven to be an eye-opening experience. I actually was stumped today when asked what motivated me to do things, and guilt was not a valid answer (it's extrinsic motivation and I needed to supply some internal motivation). So this week I'm figuring out what kinds of things will internally motivate me. Bla. I guess when you have been in school for as long as I have in undergrad work motivation seems almost comical to think of. "Motivation? What's that? I think I learned about it once upon a dream......" I feel pessimistic today so I had to put up some happy moments. No biases intended...I just love how they make me smile.
