Internal Drive and Motivation: Can it be Taught?

The snip discusses the relationship between internal drive and motivation. The speaker believes that internal drive is something that cannot be taught, but it is a fundamental aspect that individuals either have or don't have. However, the speaker suggests that while internal drive cannot be taught, it can be tapped into and harnessed. By understanding an individual's goals and drivers, it is possible to motivate and engage them by aligning the opportunities and work with their internal drivers. The speaker also highlights the importance of aligning company goals with individual goals and creating incentives, such as equity, that tap into people's internal drivers and motivate them to push harder for the company's success.
