What are the things that motivate? It doesn't seem that there are sole motivators for doing well in school really. I've seemed to notice with a very bland diet, very limited resources, and a very miniscule social life I wasn't able to study very hard.
Although a few semesters ago I was homeless, and the situation wasn't much better, but I did study harder.
I feel perhaps I just got "burnt out" and that made me question what motivates a person.
Can anyone explain burn out in term of reinforcement and stuff? The motivation to go to school seems to be there sort of. The long term rewards havent changed by life but the struggle seems to. Life has seemed to be more daunting.
At first losing out on a social life helped me prioritize and reallyyy concentrate, but later on I began to get burnt out. Perhaps things got too scarce. I don't know?
How in terms of the types of reinforcements, does an individual become burnt out?
