What Motivates You?

Find Your Why

To make deep-rooted change, we need to understand our intrinsic motivation.

So, what motivates you?

• Do you want to protect the landscapes you love?
• Do you want to safeguard your children’s future?
• Are you inspired by childhood memories?
• Is there a specific social, environmental or design problem you want to solve?

Activity

In preparation for your second module, reflect on what motivates you to build a regenerative business. If you have time, create a PowerPoint slide explaining what motivated you to take Arca’s Regenerative Rural Entrepreneurship online course.

Inspired by the Beach

To help you get started watch Johnny and Tom from Oltco explaining what motivated them to embrace the circular economy.

They live in Cornwall because they want to spend time with their family on the beach. But they noticed how it had changed from when they were kids with more and more plastic litter negatively impacting the environment and peoples’ lives, as well as wasting a perfectly reusable material: plastic! It was a problem they couldn’t ignore. So, they decided to do something about it by creating Recycle Bound – a surface for driveways made from recycled plastic.
