| There are different kinds of motivation--internal and externalmotivation. Internal motivation is the same thing as self-motivation. External motivation is that which is frequentlymeasured in experimental psychology--rats in mazes, motiva-tion times, correlations, etc. In The Miracle of Motivation we are, for the most part,dealing with internal motivation, not external motivation. Forthe sake of style, however, the terms "self-motivation" and"motivation" will be used throughout this book interchange-ably. We trust the reader will understand that, in any case, oursubject is that "power to action" a person can draw fromwithin himself, and that the term "motivation" should not betaken in its scientific, statistical sense. |
