Listen "The OG Motivation Theories You Actually Need to Know"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Radiant Mind Sculpt, we’re diving into the OG theories of motivation — the classics that shaped how we understand why people do what they do. From Maslow’s famous pyramid to Alderfer’s ERG, McClelland’s three needs, Herzberg’s two factors, and reinforcement theory — these models might sound academic, but they show up in everyday life more than you think. We’ll break them down in a way that’s simple and relatable: how unmet needs affect your drive to study, why “fixing problems” doesn’t equal motivation, and how rewards and recognition shape your habits. ✨ This isn’t just about psychology in a textbook — it’s about understanding yourself. Because once you know why your motivation slips or sparks, you can start creating an environment that fuels your growth and self-love. 💭 Reflect with me: are you just fixing the basics, or are you also building motivators that light you up?
