Motivational Growth

Motivational Growth

Miller Burns

Motivation is comprised of a multitude of aspects. One of the few is Growth, or the need for self-improvement. This is truly an internal motivation. Some may describe this as a “burning desire to increase knowledge of ourselves and of the outside world.” (Carter) This can be a very strong form of motivation. We seek to learn and grow as individuals. Motivation for growth can also be seen in our yearning for change. Many of us are wired by our personality or upbringing to constantly seek a change in either our external or internal environment or knowledge. We view stagnation to be both negative and undesirable.In a book called "The secret to success; where do I start?" Author Eric Thomas writes, "What you envision in your mind, how you see yourself, and how you envision the world around you is of great importance because those things become your focus." (Thomas 2013) This idea furthers the notion that it is up to us to seek growth in a personalized way and makes us understand the gravity of our thoughts and actions.

The video to the side goes in deeper and further identifies the nessecity of one to have their own personal burning desire to acheive what they determine greatness,
