- Mindset Matters - Episode #156 - Throwback Thursday - The 5 "P"'s to Motivation Patrick Francey 35:51
In this Throwback Thursday episode of Mindset Matters hosted by Patrick Francey and Steffany-Hanlen Francey, the couple dives into the foundational principles of motivation, using what they call “The Five P’s” framework. This episode centers on exploring what drives human performance and motivation.
Patrick and Steffany begin by explaining how people are motivated in different ways, whether by impact, challenge, or purpose. Steffany reflects on her work with athletes at the Ice Academy in Montreal, where she participated in a workshop about motivation. They discuss how understanding what motivates an individual can help coaches unlock higher performance, and they highlight that everyone is driven by different factors.
The core of the episode revolves around the “Five P’s”: People, Purpose, Pursuit, Pressure, and Profit. The couple discusses how some people are motivated by social interactions (People), others by a sense of higher calling (Purpose), some by competition and achievement (Pursuit), while others thrive under deadlines or high-stakes situations (Pressure). Finally, they emphasize that passion, or love for what one does, can tie all these motivational drivers together. Profit, while important, should not be the only driver, as fulfillment often comes from aligning passion with purpose.
Throughout the conversation, Patrick and Steffany examine how they personally relate to these motivators, offering insights from both their own lives and the lives of the people they coach. They also touch on the importance of understanding one’s motivations to create a fulfilling and successful life, whether in personal Relationships, professional goals, or Personal Development.
The episode encourages listeners to reflect on what drives them and offers practical tools for creating environments where they can thrive, no matter what their primary motivator might be.
