About This Quote

It is the very use of coercion, positive or negative, that breaks or deadens the spirit, which is the source of motivation. The word motivation is a combination of two words: motivation and motivator. Motivator is a person who gives a person a particular goal. He or she can motivate a person to do something by telling him or her that the result will be good.

However, if a person does what you tell him or her to do, he or she will not feel as motivated as he or she would have if he or she had done what he or she wanted to do in the first place. The concept of motivation has been used since ancient times; it can be found in many different religions and philosophies.
