Opposite Motivations With Identical Outcomes
10 examples of why you'll never really know what other people are feeling unless you dare to honestly ask
Some people are motivated by the desire to be thrive and others just want to not die. Others strive to be deliriously happy and even more would be thrilled to be anything other than depressed. All of us feel all kinds of reasons for all kinds of actions.
You never know just by looking.
Are they happily married or safely closeted? They just wear a ring…
Are they utterly basic or undercover-eccentric? They just went to the GAP...
Are they disordered or no? They just had some frosting...
Are they struggling or solving? They’re just scribbling in study hall…
Are they stuck-up or emotionally down? They just have so many hobbies...
Are they supportive or terrified? They just always have a clean house...
Are they mentored or micro-managed? They’re just so into their job...
Are they abused or encouraged? They’re just so impressive...
Are they rude or polite? They just have these boundaries...
Are they optimists or pessimists? They just keep making progress…
Great insights. Thanks Jess.
