Chris Mance II - Mental Skills Coach

This year I have a simple goal to serve as the foundation for my other goals. That goal is to choose intrinsic motivation and goals over extrinsic motivation and goals. The main reason why I’m doing this is because I know intrinsic goals make you happier and healthier.

Intrinsic

• Intrinsic Motivation Examples:
  • Commit to a mission and purpose statement
  • Measure and track progress for all goals
  • Build a daily routine based on the cause and effect relationship between each activity and my goals

  • Make new friends and build deeper relationships with current friends
  • Get more involved in the community
  • Improve strength, stamina, and energy

Extrinsic

  • Punishments
  • Rewards
  • Bribes
  • Bets
