Expectancy Rate Expectancy Rate X X Value Rate = Value Rate = MotivationMotivation

Guess what? If either rate is zero,Guess what? If either rate is zero,then motivation is also zero!then motivation is also zero!

““O” = O” = NOTNOT motivated or motivated or NONO Value Value““10” = 10” = HighlyHighly motivated or motivated or HighlyHighly Valued Valued

How the formula works…How the formula works…

Example – page 200 in CHAMPs Example – page 200 in CHAMPs Grocery shopping:Grocery shopping: Expectancy = 8Expectancy = 8

Value = 5Value = 5

8 X 5 = 40% motivation8 X 5 = 40% motivation

Playing with my dogs:Playing with my dogs: Expectancy = 10Expectancy = 10

Value = 10Value = 10

10 X 10 = 100% motivation 10 X 10 = 100% motivation
