• Featured quote about success “By taking the time to stop and appreciate who
you are and what you have achieved – and perhaps learned through a few mistakes,
stumbles and losses – you actually can enhance everything about you. Self-
acknowledgement and appreciation are what give you the insights and awareness to
move forward toward higher goals and accomplishment.” Brown (2016)
This quote can be reflected in the motivation and goal theories of the following
psychologists.
Albert E. Bandura
Dr. Richard Bandura is one of the most influential psychologists of all time. Self-
efficacy is the belief in one's capabilities to organize and execute sources of action
required to manage the prospective situation. There are four main sources of influence
by which a person's self-efficiency is developed and maintained: performance,
vicarious experiences, verbal or social persuasion, and physiological (somatic and
emotional) states.

Bobo Doll Experiment
● Group of children who saw the violent behaviour model- violent to the Doll.
● Control group who was presented with the non violent behaviour model-rarely
violent to the doll
This Experiment has proven right the hypothesis that social modelling is very
effective way of learning. Dr. Bandura introduced the social learning theory that
focus on what people learned from observing and interacting with other people.
Bandura’s social cognitive theory states that people are active participants in
their environment and are not simply shaped by that environment.

“Most human motivations cognitively generated”, self belief of efficacy is an
important factor in human motivation. Beliefs of self-efficacy work in coordination
with component skill and incentive to act. Inasmuch as a person has both the
component skills needed to succeed and the incentive to engage, self efficacy
plays an important role in determining what activities a person will choose to
engage in , how much effort they will expend, and how long that the effort will be
sustained when things get tough. (Weibell 201)

FIXED AND GROWTHMIND-SET T H E O RY
Carol S. Dweck

is based on hard work, learning, training, and perseverance as well as talents and
abilities.

Fixed and Growth Mindset
On the other hand, people who believe that success is based on hardwork, learning,
training, and perseverance have growth theory of intelligence, which goes under Growth
mindset. According to Dr. Dweck, individuals may not necessarily be aware of their own
mindset, but their mindset can still be discerned based on their behavior. It especially
evident in their reaction to failure. Fixed-mindset individuals dread failure because it is a
negative statement on their basic abilities, while growth-mindset individuals do not mind
or fear failure as much because they realize their performance can be improved and
learning comes from failure.
Growth mindset on the other hand believes that success is based on hard work,
learning, training, and perseverance and have growth theory of intelligence. People with
growth mindset on the other hand do mind or fear failure. It allows a person to live a
less stressful and more successful life. They also understand that talents and abilities
can be developed through effort, good teaching and persistence. They are more likely
continue working hard despite setbacks.

Edwin A. Locke
He is the author/editor of 12 books about motivation and goal-setting. His approach is
based on what Aristotle called final causality, that is, the action caused by a purpose.
Locke focuses on making lists of objectives in order to meet a certain outcome. Locke
emphasizes the background of making a goal and how to achieve it.

(Mary)
One is willing to give up other aspirations in order to accomplish a specific, feasible aim.
Commitment has a crucial role in developing and accomplishing goals. The first stage, having a
specific and doable aim, is necessary but insufficient. To attain the desired result, one must be
prepared to give up other objectives. This suggests that in order to achieve a goal, one must be
prepared to put in the time and effort necessary for it and be willing to sacrifice other aspects of their
life.
For instance, if one's objective is to launch a successful business, they may have to forgo spending
time with their loved ones and friends in order to put in the extra time needed to do so. A person may
also need to stop consuming bad foods and beverages and make a commitment to a regular exercise

schedule if their objective is to lose weight or become in shape. It's critical to be conscious of any
potential sacrifices that may be necessary in order to reach a goal, no matter what it may be.
It goes without saying that not every objective will call for this amount of dedication. However,
dedication is crucial for achieving those objectives that are significant to us and that we genuinely
desire. Our chances of success are significantly lower without it. As a result, if you're serious about
reaching your goals, make a commitment to both yourself and the goal and follow through to
completion.

Examples:
1. In order to study more, a student who is committed to earn good grades may have to give up social
activities.
2. Athletes that want to compete in the Olympics might need to exercise for several hours each day.
3. A musician who aspires to become a professional might have to put in a lot of practice time every
day.
4. A person looking to lose weight may need to make dietary changes and engage in regular exercise.
5. A smoker who wishes to stop may need to stay away from triggers and exercise extreme restraint.
9. Goals affect performance by affecting the direction of action, the degree of effort
exerted, and the persistence of action over time
(Mary) Goals can affect performance by providing a sense of direction and purpose. They can
also affect the level of effort exerted by influencing how much importance is placed on
achieving the goal. Lastly, goals can also affect the level of persistence by determining how
long someone is willing to continue working towards a goal in the face of setbacks.

10. Goal stimulate planning in general
11. When people strive for goals on complex task’ they are least suitable in
discovering suitable task strategies if:
a. There are no prior experience
b. High pressure to perform well and;
c. High time pressure
12. Goals in combination with self-efficacy, mediate or partially mediate the effects of
several personality traits and incentives on performance
13. Goal-setting and goal-related mechanisms are be trained and/or adopted in the
absence of training for the purpose of self-regulation
14. Goals served as standards of self-satisfaction, harder goals demands higher
accomplishment in order to attain self-satisfaction.
(Mary) There is some evidence that individuals may successfully learn task techniques without any
prior knowledge or instruction. According to one research, people may learn a new skill reliably and
fast with just a few tries.
According to the results of another study, people learn the best approaches to a challenging activity
via trial and error.
People may not be successful in learning appropriate task techniques if they lack prior experience or
instruction. This may be due to their lack of knowledge on the best techniques to employ or how to
do so.
However, individuals may be more successful in identifying appropriate task solutions if they have
some prior experience or instruction. The aforementioned is due to the fact that they will be familiar
with particular methods and how to employ them successfully.

Voice-over only
Dreams can come true, but it depends on how determined we are to make those

your head, Before we end our report, I will give you several tips on how to make them
happen:

Write your dreams down.

for the ones that are achievable, and make sure they happen through hard work and
perseverance.

Find someone who can give you Guidance, then go for it.
Voice-over only: To get your dreams underway, you need to let someone in on your
‘secrets’. Find someone who can give you pointers like a business coach or a mentor,

should be just as enjoyable. So work slowly and methodically, and pick up experience

Dream on.
Voice-over only: Whether it works out or not, you should never stop taking your
dreams and making them real. So keep on dreaming and fulfilling that potential. Dont
forget to take action, if you don’t, it will remain in your dream.

Always remember that if you just daydream, and avoid making changes in your
life, nothing will happen. Most dreams can come true, but you need to be
courageous to pursue them. Procrastination is not an option. You need to invest
time and energy into making them come true.
I’m leaving you the quote from Walt Disney that “all our dreams can come true, if
we have the courage to pursue them”
