What's your Motivation?

Customarily we are motivated by rewards, desires, fame, passion, and recognition but educational motivation is different. The longing to achieve literacy, learn new things, and built a career are the underlying reasons why people pursue education. Not everyone finds education gratifying but the mentioned factors motivate us to learn:



Endless curiosity means having a constant impulse or desire to investigate, observe, or gather information, particularly when the material is novel or interesting.



To avoid the embarrassment of knowing nothing- in this scenario, learning is used as a safety behavior to avoid shame. Lived experiences of self-conscious emotions like shame, guilt, or embarrassment are a strong motivation for self-change.
