The importance of Intrinsic Motivation - Key elements of emotional Intelligence!
Intrinsic motivation is absolutely vital—it’s one of the cornerstone elements of emotional intelligence. Generally speaking, individuals who are driven by what truly matters to them tend to be far happier than those who focus on external pressures, whether from family expectations, societal norms, or the influence of social groups. When you are intrinsically motivated, you are aligned with your core values, you understand what you truly desire, and you pursue it with passion and purpose.
If you find that you lack intrinsic motivation, perhaps you haven’t yet fully explored what genuinely excites and drives you. You might feel conflicted by all the “shoulds” that surround us. Our world is filled with countless “shoulds,” which can easily confuse us and keep us feeling stuck. I urge you to take the time to look inward, discover what truly motivates you, and identify what you really want from life!
