If your motivation for maintaining control is financial more than operational, you might focus on how you use your business assets.
The minute you let your guard down, a bit of control is lost, motivation drops below sea level, organization slips a bit, and a plan becomes dusty and forgotten.
Evidence suggests that, although weight and weight gain are influenced by a number of different factors such as genetics and environment, a key to weight control is individual motivation to limit calorie intake and increase physical activity [ 12], indeed, research [ 13- 16] has identified that the dietary and lifestyle behaviours during pregnancy influence gestational weight gain.
With conceptual links to both motivation and self-control, locus of control is also an increasingly important construct for understanding a wide range of economic decisions.
A potentially more powerful and sensitive means of examining the effects of reward motivation and positive affect on cognitive control is through the proactive control index (see the Method section and Braver et al., 2009, for details), which was applied to both the error and RT measures.
Current evidence suggests that many of the necessary core components, mental concepts, social awareness, cooperative motivation and vocal control, are also present in non-human animals, in various rudimentary forms.
Conversely, reduced motivation and poor motor control are unlikely to contribute to shorter IRTs in DRL: Smaller rewards yield longer IRTs in rats and pigeons [ 30].
Therefore, unsurprisingly, the desire for improved weight control was an important motivation for physicians to prescribe liraglutide in the EVIDENCE study.
Nobel Laureate James Heckman writes that investment in the education of children's "non-cognitive" skills — like motivation, perseverance, and self-control — is a cost-effective approach to increasing the quality and productivity of the workforce.
Let us recall that, the main motivation to introduce feedback controls is to keep the corresponding control strategy to be robust with respect to (small) perturbations.
