Engaging in a behaviour for interest and enjoyment (e. g. , if you enjoy doing an activity, the motivation is inside you and easy to come into action) Deeply held values and beliefs (what you truly believe in) Your behaviour will be more creative (e. g. , when you encounter obstacles you will be able to think outside the box, and your emotions will stay positive: 2 types of support/environment, controlled environment, autonomy support (supportive environment) Getting people to be autonomously motivated by: Improving how the person sees the situation (their internal frame of reference) Providing people with choice (e. g. , allowing them to be involved in the decision process)
