ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
In "Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us" by Daniel H. Pink, the author explores the science of motivation, arguing that traditional reward and punishment systems are often ineffective. The book presents the idea of intrinsic motivation, fueled by autonomy, mastery, and purpose, as a more powerful alternative. It delves into the flaws of extrinsic motivators, such as monetary incentives, and reveals how they can undermine creativity and performance. Instead, the narrative suggests that fostering an environment that supports self-direction, continuous improvement, and a sense of significance is the key to true motivation and fulfillment. The book offers practical advice for individuals, organizations, educators, and parents to embrace a more effective approach to motivation.
