Intrinsic Motivations

1. Find specific people who know you and love and care for you that represent each of the
following categories:
• Parent/Guardian.
• Teacher, Friend, Sibling or relative who is younger than you.

2. Provide all of the people you have identified with a copy of the IMAGE 360 (not the Mirror)
chart below and ask them to rank the seven intrinsic motivations based on what they've seen
in your life. Let them know that the top three are the most important, so if they are unsure
once they get beyond the top three, it is okay to leave them blank. Encourage them to give an
example for the top three. If they have examples for others beyond the top three, let them
know you would value those as well.

 1. Compare the top three intrinsic motivations you identified for yourself to the top three identified
by others in the IMAGE 360. What do others see in you that you may not see in yourself?
What can you learn about your perception of yourself?

2. Reflect on what you learned from your IMAGE assessment and from this Exercise, and
summarize below what they have revealed to you about yourself.
