It is widely believed that people do their best work when they are promised rewards for their achievements. Our schools and workplaces operate on the assumption that good work occurs when people are competing for grades, money, or recognition from others.

People do their best work when motivated from within by their enjoyment of a particular challenge and their satisfaction in doing something well.
