RE: What's The Direction Of Your Motivation? Toward Pleasure Or Away From Pain?
I don't tend to fit into any particular pattern that I've found as I change my mind a lot. One moment it may be for pleasure, and the next it may be pain avoidance. It may also be for pleasure or pain avoidance of someone else. I change my mind quite a bit, so pinning down one way I think or approach things is difficult to do. Solving puzzles while avoiding boxes. That motivates me quite a bit.
My frame of mind at the time can make a big difference too. I view my mind almost like something with different gears. Depending which gear I am in the way I think tends to differ.
It's possible to be balanced or to be away\toward in certain situations. It's also possible to change the way we think :)
Thank you for the comment!
Nevertheless we all have thinking patterns whether we are aware of them or not :)
