Copy of the article "Excessive carrot in the body." (Motivation can be of two types - internal (when you enjoy what you do) and external (when you do something under the pressure of circumstances). Motivation can be negative and positive (whip and carrot.) It was believed that positive motivation is always good.The American scientists Mark Lepper and Richard Nisbett conducted a simple experiment in the kindergarten.
The first group of children they promised beautiful prize ribbons for drawing with felt-tip pens.
For the second group, they distributed these ribbons just like that.
The third group was left without gifts. Almost all children like to draw. But the children from the first group began to draw much less than the second and third. Previously, they painted for their own pleasure, and now it turned out that they paint for the sake of reward. And external motivation blunted the inner one. Then the same experiment with awards and prizes was held with the children who learned to count. With the same result. This was called the over-exclusion effect.) Now let's return to our sheep. Let's take two traders with the same technical background. One trades to buy an apartment, a car, etc. The second simply likes trading on the stock exchange. Judging by the above studies, the best results will be achieved by those who love the process, not the result. Something reminds me of this ...
The Black Caviar horse this time inserted everyone already on the English racetrack, winning the race at the Royal Ascot Championship. As the Englishmen know this horse little, the coefficient for it at the start was 1.9 instead of the usual 1.05. Peter Web, seeing this with joy almost danced and says that he loaded it to the loss of the pulse. In her last race, kef was pushed within two points, and I figured that Peter scrolled about 50 thousand pounds. I suspect that he made a tidy sum on the sun. Even coach Moody thanked twice almost in one sentence.
Probably the schedule of running such "animals" ready to break any racecourse must be kept on a wall in a prominent place. Dorm money. Score 22 winnings out of 22x races.
The British queen shakes hands with the Irish politician Martin McGuinness, who was one of the leaders of the IRA, who organized the attempt on her cousin, the last vice-king of India, Admiral Mountbetten. During the explosion, together with the latter, the mother-in-law and two teenagers were killed. For the sake of the country's welfare, she had to come to terms with the organizer of the killing of relatives. Many of us, in the process of trading, can not do even for their own benefit the simplest thing - stop when you lose. Do you feel the difference?
