Why are people motivated to do something? What makes them decide to continue or discontinue a behavior?
This is my first blog, believe it or not! I imagined it would be more difficult, but this has been a fun, 10-15 minute activity. Since my first experience in this blog has proven positive, I expect to build upon my intrinsic motivation to continue developing this site (Reeve, 2008). As my blogging develops over time, I can look back on my work and experience a perceived competence, activating my emotions to regulate my blogging activities.
