内驱力到底从哪里来？为什么有的人总是干劲十足，好像有个身体里有个永远加满油的马达？不一定是追求世俗的金钱名望，那到底是什么趋势我们不停地跑向远方？ 这期我们邀请到嘉宾苏珊（Susan），一个温柔佛系、却年年站上演讲最高舞台、还自己创办了青少年演讲俱乐部的女性。我们聊了内驱力到底从哪来，胜负欲是不是坏事，以及为什么"自己看见自己"比外界评价重要得多。 内驱力不靠鸡汤，它来自你能自主决定、能胜任、有意义，也能在同频的人里找到归属感的事情。可能你是天生有探索欲的“自燃型”人，也可能是需要外力推一推的"可燃型"。 如果你还没找到自己的内驱力，那么不妨从生活中最小的改变开始，一旦点燃，那将是新的世界。 本期主播： 至卉：生活在中国，注册营养师兼创业公司产品经理，职业上靠研究食物谋生，生活中靠"用嘴表达"解压，持续探索生活与自我的可能性。ENFJ射手，激情高昂，内心柔软。 本期嘉宾： 苏珊：外企职场骨干，家庭幸福美满，痴迷演讲年年比赛拿奖，业余时间创办了一家面向青少年的公众表达俱乐部，用"为爱发电"的方式，陪孩子每周锻炼"表达的肌肉"。温柔且坚定，闷声干大事。 时间轴 一、温柔且坚定：一个"自燃型"女人为何不停折腾自己00:05 温柔佛系的她，为什么不停"折腾"自己 02:14 没有胜负欲的人，为何年年站上演讲最高舞台 08:43 不是想追求冠军，而是在比赛中看见自己的多面性，传递价值 14:07 我明明有一箱子的闪光球，却还是会低估我自己 17:17 已经有了完美生活，还要办一家不赚钱的俱乐部 19:15 表达像肌肉，每个人都有，只是需要一个"健身房" 二、内驱力的燃料：意义感、胜任感，归属感，自主感22:12 胜任感是底气：每周都要办活动，先相信自己"搞得定" 23:40 意义感是动力：当被人需要，这件事就值得持续去做 26:42 归属感是燃料：独行快，众行远，没能量时重新被点燃 30:19 自主感是加持：自己决定要去做什么，不赚钱也有动力 30:42 自燃型、可燃型、阻燃型的人，你是哪种？ 32:05 给可燃型的人：机会来临时，先说一句"Yes" 三、找到你自己的节奏：先做了再说35:51 不要预设结果：走出家门晃一晃，就有新体验 37:27 找到自己的节奏，不是每个人都要当拼命三郎 39:16 持续正反馈非常重要，首先得自己看见自己 45:39 胜负欲不是坏事，它其实说明你很清楚自己要什么 52:38 总结：先做了再说，自己看见自己，拥有源源不断的内驱力 提到的几个概念 自燃型 / 可燃型 / 阻燃型人格：自燃型是自己就能点燃自己的人；可燃型需要别人推一把、给点能量才能燃起来；阻燃型不仅自己不燃，还会把想燃的人也浇灭。 冒名顶替综合症（Imposter Syndrome）：已经足够优秀、外界也认可，但内心却觉得自己是冒名顶替者，不相信自己配得上那些成就。本质是一种低估自己。 闪光球与宝箱比喻：每拿到一个成绩就像得到一个闪光球，放进宝箱、盖上盖子，又回到平凡生活——很多人只忙着找新球，却很少打开箱子看看自己已经拥有多少。 表达肌肉：公众表达和领导力就像肌肉，天生就有但需要锻炼；青少年缺少练习的平台，所以办俱乐部让他们像去健身房一样，每周锻炼"表达的肌肉"。 内驱力的四个来源：自主感（自己决定想做什么）、意义感（事情对自己有意义）、胜任感（相信自己搞得定）、归属感（在同频的人里找到归属）。 相关书籍 《干法》——稻盛和夫：日本企业家稻盛和夫总结70余年工作经验，阐述劳动观与工作哲学的经典著作，核心理念是“工作即修行”，强调全身心投入工作以实现人格完善与价值提升。其中阐述了“自然型”、“可燃型”人格。 往期相关单集 EP22 疲惫生活里的充能时刻，从星辰大海到小猫对视 EP7 在非盈利组织撞见自己，职场之外的成长秘境 置顶图片扫码，解锁更多【养自己啊】深度内容 💬 粉丝群 | 节目更新，聊天交流，分享你的"养自己"瞬间 📖 公众号 | 未讲完的故事，主播专栏，文字版陪伴 Internal Drive | Without Flowers and Applause, What Keeps Pushing Us to Keep Running Toward the Horizon? Where does internal drive come from? Why are some people always full of energy, as if there's a motor inside them that's permanently running on a full tank? It's not necessarily the pursuit of worldly wealth and fame — so what exactly is it that keeps driving us to keep running toward the horizon? In this episode we welcome our guest Susan — a gentle, easy-going woman who nonetheless steps onto the highest public-speaking stages every single year, and who founded her own youth public-speaking club. We talked about where internal drive really comes from, whether the desire to win is a bad thing, and why "seeing yourself" matters far more than outside validation. Internal drive isn't about chicken-soup-for-the-soul platitudes. It comes from things you can choose on your own, that you're competent at, that carry meaning, and where you find belonging among like-minded people. You might be a born explorer with a "self-igniting" personality, or you might be a "flammable" type who just needs an external push. If you haven't found your internal drive yet, then start with the smallest change in your life — once it's lit, a whole new world opens up. Hosts: Zhihui: Lives in China, registered dietitian and product manager at a startup. Makes a living studying food, decompresses by "talking things out," and continuously explores the possibilities of life and self. ENFJ Sagittarius — high-spirited, soft-hearted. Guest: Susan: A backbone professional at a foreign company, with a happy and fulfilling family life. Obsessed with public speaking, she competes and wins awards every year. In her spare time she founded a public-expression club for teenagers, accompanying the kids to exercise their "expression muscles" every week — powered purely by love, not profit. Gentle yet firm; quietly gets big things done. TimelineI. Gentle Yet Firm: Why a "Self-Igniting" Woman Keeps Pushing Herself00:05 The gentle, easy-going her — why does she keep "stirring things up"? 02:14 Someone with no desire to win — why does she stand on the highest speaking stages year after year? 08:43 Not chasing the championship, but seeing her many facets and passing on value through competition 14:07 I clearly have a chest full of shining balls, yet I still underestimate myself 17:17 Already living a perfect life — yet still starting a club that makes no money 19:15 Expression is like a muscle — everyone has one, they just need a "gym" II. The Fuel of Internal Drive: Sense of Meaning, Competence, Belonging22:12 Competence is the foundation: running events every week — first believe you've "got this" 23:40 Sense of meaning is the drive: when you're needed, the thing is worth doing again and again 26:42 Belonging is the fuel: you go fast alone, far together — re-ignited when your energy runs low 30:19 Autonomy is the boost: deciding for yourself what to do — motivated even without pay 30:42 Self-igniting, flammable, fire-retardant — which type are you? 32:05 For the flammable type: when opportunity comes, just say "Yes" first III. Find Your Own Rhythm: Just Do It First35:51 Don't preset the outcome: step out the door and wander a bit, and new experiences show up 37:27 Find your own rhythm — not everyone needs to be a workaholic 39:16 Steady positive feedback matters a lot — first, you have to see yourself 45:39 The desire to win isn't a bad thing — it actually shows you clearly know what you want 52:38 Wrap-up: just do it first, see yourself, and possess an endless wellspring of internal drive Key ConceptsSelf-igniting / Flammable / Fire-retardant Personality: The self-igniting type can light themselves up on their own; the flammable type needs someone to give them a push and a bit of energy before they'll burn; the fire-retardant type not only won't burn themselves, but also douses those who want to. Imposter Syndrome: Already excellent and recognized by the outside world, yet inwardly feeling like an impostor who doesn't believe they deserve those achievements. Essentially a form of underestimating oneself. The Shining-ball and Treasure-chest Metaphor: Every achievement you earn is like gaining a shining ball — you drop it into the chest, close the lid, and return to ordinary life. Many people stay busy hunting for new balls but rarely open the chest to see how much they already have. Expression Muscles: Public expression and leadership are like muscles — everyone is born with them, but they need exercise. Teenagers lack a platform to practice, so the club lets them go to the "gym" and work their "expression muscles" every week. The Four Sources of Internal Drive: Autonomy (deciding for yourself what to do), Sense of Meaning (the thing matters to you), Competence (believing you've got this), Belonging (finding your place among like-minded people).
