Abstract

In this chapter, we review and discuss personal values and motivators (both extrinsic and intrinsic) which constitute other important psychological characteristics that can serve as drivers or blockers in an individual’s change efforts. Values exist in one’s conscious and unconscious and can create both desires and fears. They are regarded as a motivational influence that can promote or impede an individual’s efforts in accomplishing a task, therefore acting as drivers as well as blockers. We further discuss a range of both extrinsic and intrinsic motivators that can cajole or force people into achieving their change objectives or engage in resistance. These include extrinsic-positive, intrinsic-positive, extrinsic-negative and intrinsic-negative which can act as drivers as well as blockers in people’s commitments and action to change.
