Positive reinforment is your will towards something for the rewarding aspects, and negative reinforcement is the freedom or abscence of negative aspects that you gain.
I will give you my serious opinion on what success is, and I would define it as being the person you want to be, living the life you want to live, in constant development and never loosing interest. Success is your personal happiness and contentment as well as your functional level in your choosen context/s.
I do however dislike the words "success" and "failure" since they sound like typical polarised American life-coach words to me. |
