I think this is very true, if i know that when i complete something, there will be a reward i feel more keen to complete the task at hand. I’m genuinely surprised that from completing this short test it has obtained enough information to judge my behavior perfectly. I am the kind of person that would see sitting through school all week a hassle, but it came with the reward of going to a party on the following Saturday. I’m a very in the moment (impulsive) person. I like to think about the short term rewards rather than the long term. Winning a bet, proving a point, being right and being first have always been a big priority of mine. If there is a competition, i will go all out to win, no matter what.
A huge motivator of mine that this test was unable to pick up on, is ‘what other people think of me’. This is a huge factor that has ruled my motivation ever since i started high school. I am always trying to impress everyone, from the clothes i wear, to the music i listen to, to the activities that i would participate in, and the list could go on. Other people opinions on me has always meant a lot to me, and it is something that i have been unable to shake for many years now. I have slowly started to over come and realize that what other people think doesn’t really matter and only what i think truly matters.
