Dang now I need a burri-
wow you guys are better at this than you thought
rejected? Denied? – I reject this statement by denying it to be true
First it's important to have the motivation to tell people where you are going
at 3:52 the title says "Drive- reduction theory" but shouldn't it say "optimal arousal theory"?
i have yet to find, in my search so far, a satisfactory definition of what motivation is, but many people talk about how to get it, but i just dont know what it is im trying to get, how do i get a thing that i dont know what it is? I cant even tell what is motivating me to go after this question.What motivated me to spend 2 hours reading about friedrich nietzsche's life, when studying for things i care about tires me out after 20 minutes?
The training was so nice…but my recommendation is the training be with subtitles.
Am I the only one confused as to why the image for "root vegetables" was a pizza
This foo is a virgin ๐

You should see how he shows up on Sonocent lecture recording. He literally doesn't pause to breathe. It's continuous skip free recording lol.
Please Slow down mister. You are too fast, such videos are supposed to be slow and composed.
Watched this video so I could scientifically strategise how to motivate myself but instead I'm feeling really insecure about my asexually
anyone else watching this stuff in 2020?

I do appreciate it. My psychology instructor keeps referring us to these videos in her slides
Big Thumbs up
8:40 yep pizza is a vegetable
Hey, new knitting patterns can be pretty damn exciting!
Sincerely, the knitting adrenaline junkie :p
And one else sees the pyramid and think The Fault In Our Stars????
You talk too fast ๐. It's hard to understand the lesson ๐
hablas como guajolote.
Thanks for sharing this interesting video!
"…we are driven at least three big motivators: sex-"
Laughs in asexual
Another animal instinct is like when your dog does the doggie paddle even though its just above the water, not in it ๐ Don't some human infants have similar swimming instincts?
At 2:50, with regards to drive theory, He says psychological need instead of physiological need.
He talk wayyyyy to fast
As a teacher, I say the fast-paced edit style used by this presenter makes this video stressful and exhausting to listen to. It's impossible to take in one fact before he's halfway into another, and don't even think about writing down any notes unless you want to hit pause every sentence or so. I'm not going to ask my class to come here to watch this. ๐
" Others may be satiated by an engaging book or a new knitting pattern"
