Just curious - I have been reading a lot about motivation and where it comes from... and I come to realize that I may not be entirely sure of where my beliefs and values derive from and how these may manifest themselves via my own behaviour.
I am not entirely sure that anyone truly understands themselves particualrly in respect to unconscious motivation - doing things that we know don't make sense but we do them anyway - for some reason.
Often I find others behaviour confusing and illogical - or I suspect that someone may not actually be being true to themselves and behaving in a way that I think may have an ulterior motive or agenda - yet to the person exhibiting that behavoiour it no doubt makes perfect sense.
I guess what I am asking is - if you honestly had to ask yourself, truly, do you really understand your own motivations and behaviour? Are you honest enough with yourself seek answers about what drives you? And what do you think about motivation in others and in yourself in general?
