glasser’s motivation theory or being told you can’t is about the same thing by Scot Young
william glasser derived
motivation worked best
from the inside out as
an internal drive for success
or sense of purpose.
intrinsic vs extrinsic
my high school counselor
said i wasn’t college material
i should go build cars
at ford or gm or
work construction
so i did
when i did go to college
it was motivated
by the opposite sex
when i got married for
love everyone thought
and said
it would only last a year
that was 40 years now
and those people are
now gone
later family and a sense
i needed to provide more
be more
so i returned to those halls
seeking more
there i was told i needed two
semesters of As to be admitted
to the teaching program
and with 100 hours at a
perfect 2.0
and never having more
than a few As in that
previous life
would be impossible.
i answered but i didn’t have to
before
so i did
before glasser my k-12
teachers said not working
up to his potential
does not play well with others
after a certificate of completion
from the school
of hard knocks and
three college
degrees i found those early
educators were at least
half right
