They are diminished throughout our life by what Dr. Deming calls the forces of destruction - of which extrinsic motivation is one of these destructive forces.

Wonderful! He's still so far ahead of the pack that the rest of the pack doesn't even know where he is. Pretty sad when a man has been dead for a decade and the rest of the world still hasn't caught up. Thanks for posting (and I added it to my blog as well, thanks to you).
Great. But I think what he meant is that motivation should be both extrinsic and intrinsic. stressing in one ultimately will destructive but balancing should be used to make them both constructive, Is this true Michael, Don?
