Not Good Enough, Need to Be Better: A Broken Model of Motivation
Sep 09, 2025 Episode 60
Pete Kadushin, PhD

In this episode, I explore a common motivation pattern that presents itself as people walk the path of mastery. I'll outline the negative motivation model, why we get hooked on being driven by fear, and how it holds us back.

Then, I roll out the alternative approach and offer up some practices that will allow you to cultivate more sustainable motivation over time.
