Another thing is that the "wanting behavior" linked with a reward stimulus can be increased through tiny injections of dopaminergic drugs and dopamine.
The ''wanting behavior'' associated with a rewarding stimulus can be increased by microinjections of dopamine, so you need to be happy to be motivated also :D
Hi, do you have any advice on how to stay motived? Not any here but according to Maehr and Meyer, the word motivation is part of popular culture. Hmm, okay I see what you mean. What do you do to stay motivated when you have to do a rather mundane task? Sorry, but I don't have any advice for that. However, motivation is typically defined with two parts, a directional part and a "seeking phase". Ahh I see, so if I find a suitable reason why I should do a task I will find motivation easier. That sounds good to me. :)
