      Morning musings: Motivation is a scarce resource. Why do some harbour more than others? Can motivation be cultivated, or is it innate? Further, can motivation be imposed externally, or does it come from within the individual?

      What is the relationship between motivation and productivity? Is there a discernable difference between negative and positive motivation? (i.e. running for your life - immediate threat, or pursuing something positive w/o danger) Keep in mind: answers don't come without questions

      > difference between negative and positive motivation? Have thought lots about this. Seems there is, both inherently to any feedback system and specifics to human psychology implementation. It's adaptive for fear to overpower desire: those who don't flee don't survive.

      This makes sense when dealing with real acute danger, but for some time now* humans have been living in tense states of chronic fear. Due to the power differential ☝ between fear & desire, this makes desire-based motivation hard to tap *(I've updated a few times about how long)

      It seems that if people can narrow their view sufficiently, they can sometimes do it for short periods. Sex or food, for instance. But trying to really think about the question "what do I want" quickly reveals that many people have no idea and are afraid to consider it.

      People arr habituated to orient to what they *don't* want. And the question "what _do_ I want?" is a fundamentally different type. You can watch people answer "what do you want?" questions in the negative.

      Part of the issue is (and this is why I say positive vs negative motivation are different in all systems) you can't AIM awayness based motivation. In 1-dimensional systems, this is fine because there's no aiming to do (as long as you don't go past the repulsor)pic.twitter.com/vCPdZaeJHY

      But in 2D, you can already see that "away" is basically everywhere. Whereas with towardsness, you can hone in. As the # of dimensions gets large (and it's huge for most interesting things) the relative usefulness of awayness feedback gets tiny.

      Talked with @Conaw last fall and he pointed out that this is why role models are so important. It's not enough to have a sense of which behaviors will get you punished (btw: reward is just the temporary relief of punishment). You need to have a multi-dimensional destination.

          Imagine trying to steer someone to stop in one exact spot. You can place a ❤ beacon they'll move towards, or a ☠beacon they'll move away from. (Reverse for goths) In a hallway, you can trap them in the middle of two ☠☠, or just put the ❤in the exact spot.
