Humans are driven on three levels;
The first drive - are biological urges like sex, food, survival and so on.
The second drive - is extrinsic carrot-and-sticks motivation. It's about not getting punished and about getting your promotion.
The Third drive - is intrinsic motivation, a hardwired need for meaning, transcendence, creativity and contribution to the world around us.
This blog explores the wonder and power of The Third Drive and all kinds of other stuff that has nothing to do with it.
