What drives you prizes or passion?

In the matter of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation there are those who wait for the capacity to do to be externally aroused through visual, visceral and exterior prizes. But there are those whose arousal is obtained through identifying with values and objectives and thus reward themselves by the pursuit of those designs in which they find fulfillment.  External motivations last as long as the stimulation recurs, internal drives last as long as the passion remains. Those who rely on external stimulus are understandably impatient and are happy to sustain the routine of gratification to hunger- satisfaction is not the aim. Those that rely on internal drives are more patient and more persuasive in their arguments for the big picture – to them is granted satisfaction of a promise fulfilled.
