“If you see your life as a game, then everything feels different.” Today, Yu-kai Chou (Author & Founder of The Octalysis Group & Metablox) joins us to talk about why fun is an important part of gaining motivation, creating long-lasting habits, and achieving greater happiness. He breaks down the 8 core drivers of motivation, which you can use to maintain momentum and stay engaged with your healthy habits (for the long run). Sorry, but hope and willpower have no place here. Tune in to learn how gamification can help you move the needle! Meet Yu-kai Chou: Yu-kai Chou is an Author and International Keynote Speaker on Gamification and Behavioral Design. He is the Author of Actionable Gamification and the Founder of The Octalysis Group as well as Metablox. His design work has empowered over 1 Billion users' experiences and was rated #1 among the “Top 100 Gamification Gurus” in the world. Yu-kai was also Chief Experience Officer in Decentral, working with Ethereum Cofounder Anthony Di Iorio, as well as Head of Creative Labs/Digital Commerce for HTC, pioneering VIVE VR and the Metaverse. Episode Highlights: Yu-kai's game objective is creating the most impact possible while having fun. If you're not having fun, why are you doing it? (04:40) You will become truly successful when you're doing what you love on a regular basis. (10:03) The 8 core drivers of motivation in Yu-kai's Octalysis Framework: Epic Meaning & Calling, Development & Accomplishment, Empowerment of Creativity & Feedback, Ownership & Possession, Social Influence & Relatedness, Scarcity & Impatience, Unpredictability & Curiosity, and Loss & Avoidance (12:38) As long as you feel like you're progressing, you'll stay motivated. Once you lose a sense of progression, your motivation can decrease. (17:21) One of the most effective ways to maintain momentum (or a habit) is keeping a streak. Creating a streak is not about how well you do at your habit, it's about how consistent you are. Streaks train your brain to check in every day, otherwise you lose the momentum. To avoid burnout/frustration from losing a streak, build a vacation/rest day into it! (31:52) Happiness is growth, but it's also balance. Happiness is not all about money and career, it requires a holistic approach where you work on your physical health, mindset, emotional health, relationships, and more. What current habits do you have in each of these that aren't helping you? How can you replace them with different habits and gamify them to achieve greater happiness in life?

I think even just that one thing will change a lot of people's lives.""If you say yes to every opportunity, you have no strategy.""I think it's important for people to be able to respect and like themselves. I think that's worth a lot of luxury in life.""Even if everything was successful. If I did things against my moral principles. Like, I'd be super rich and successful. I'd be in a big house, a nice TV, a nice house and all that nice stuff will be surrounding a piece of shit. And that piece of shit is me. And I think that's not worth it. Like I need to respect myself. I need to like myself for me to enjoy my life.""When you move from country to country, you realize: Hey, what's like socially polite and expected in one country (and) is offensive another. And you realize, (oh) these are all variables. These are all up to change human systems. And that's when you can think the most stuff fluidly. So my work has inspired a lot of people to try to change their life into games and change their minds.""I think there are so many facets that life can improve if you see it as a game. Like just one simple thing is just attitude and mentality, right? Some people think, "why do you have so many obstacles in my life?" "so much bad luck," and they kind of give up. But if you look at a game, a game is really boring if there are no obstacles or resistance or bad guys that are going against you.""In a game, every obstacle is actually an opportunity to score more points and people tackle them with a strong attitude. And I think in life, a lot of the same people when they face any obstacles, any setbacks, they're just like, oh my life sucks. I'm not going to try anymore. Like even with the game of golf, right? If golf was just about getting to the goal, then it's kind of boring. Just pick up the ball, walk up to the hole, and put it in. But no one would want to play that. So we need to add a lot of difficulty and obstacles or we need to stand up far away, headed with a weird stick. There needs to be little sand puddles and ponds to make it more frustrating. And now it's a fun game." Links Mentioned:Kurt's Twitter Kurt's InstagramKurt's LinkedInKurt's newsletter Rate the podcastYu-kai's LinkedInYu-kai's TwitterYu-kai's Website Octalysis group website

Was wäre, wenn wir häufiger Dinge machen, weil sie uns Spaß machen, anstatt dass wir sie machen „müssen“? Mit mehr Freude bei der „Arbeit“ könnten wir produktiver sein und uns gleichzeitig wohler fühlen: eine Win-win-Situation. – Seit nunmehr 17 Jahren beschäftigt sich Yu-Kai Chou mit Gamification und träumt von einer Welt, in der Human-Focused Design in jeglichen Industriebereichen Anwendung findet; ganz im Sinne einer Mensch-orientierten Denkweise (siehe Folge 3). Dafür gilt es, unsere inneren Antriebe bei der Entwicklung interaktiver Systeme zu berücksichtigen (und bestenfalls sogar in den Fokus zu rücken). Gut gestaltete Systeme dieser Art liefern entsprechende Anreize für verschiedene Motivationstypen. Kurz gesagt: dank Gamification Design haben wir mehr Spaß an dem was wir tun. – Chou identifizierte 8 grundlegende Motivatoren, die menschliches Handeln anregen. Seit der Erstveröffentlichung seines Konzepts im Jahr 2012 ordnet er diesen sogenannten „Core Drives“ verschiedene Spielelemente und -mechaniken zu. – In dieser Folge stellen wir euch anhand vielseitiger Beispiele das „Octalysis“ Framework vor: ein Werkzeug für motivationsbasiertes Design, das sich ebenso zur Analyse eignet – von der Büroanwendung über soziale Netzwerke bis hin zu Spielen selbst. Dabei gibt es zu entdecken, was Anfängerglück episch macht oder warum Punkten, Trophäen und Ranglisten nur einen Bruchteil der Möglichkeiten abbilden.

Games have encouraged desired actions from the beginning of time.How can we use game-like elements & why do they work so well?In this podcast, Jonny goes through how game elements are actually based on our core human drives. From the beginning of time Games were created to motivate us to do things;Sport ‘games' were originally created to get people to take action and keep fit.Board Games like Chess were created to educate soldiers on military strategy.Ancient games like “Knuckles” were used to keep people's minds entertained and Engaged during a famine.Games and game-like elements have been used to educate, entertain and engage. Some classic game elements are; Points, badges & leaderboards.Points (used in sports, Sky Miles, reward cards and video games)Badges (from the military to golden stars on school report cards)Leaderboards (used in the Olympics, sales teams, and in general life to see who winners or losers are).These are just to name a few, but there's actually a lot more to these seemingly simple elements than what most people think.World-leading Gamification expert Yu-kai Chou believes that true gamification is when we tap into our core human drives. He believes these core drives are key to bringing “fun & engagement” into almost any task; these 8 universal core drives are;• Meaning – the desire to feel that our actions have a purpose• Accomplishment – The drive to achieve and overcome challenges• Empowerment – The desire to choose one's own direction and try a variety of solutions to a problem• Ownership – The desire to own things and have possession• Social Influence – The drive to interact with, help, learn from and compete with others• Scarcity – The drive of wanting things you can't have• Unpredictability – The drive of wanting to know what will happen next, and ..• Avoidance – The drive to avoid pain or negative consequences.The history and effectiveness of elements like points, badges and leaderboards according to Yu-Kai Chou is in their ability to use these core drives. For instance;- Point systems make us feel like we have a meaning, purpose and a sense of progression.- Badges tap into the need for accomplishment and reward- Leaderboards appeal to our need for social status and influence.The more we understand the psychology behind our core drives, the better we will be at Creating Games & Campaigns that meet our core needs and intern is proven to become more fun, engaging and a higher likelihood of being shared.For video and full text go here: https://www.gamify.com/gamification-blog/8-core-human-drives-in-gamification-marketing-videoDid you like this Podcast?

It began as an intense passion for gaming and grew into a philosophy – a way of life. Yu-Kai Chou is one of the earliest pioneers of a concept called ‘gamification’. Having put his “heart and soul” into the game ‘Diablo II’ and spending countless hours levelling up his character, he realized that time would’ve been better spent levelling up in real life. Turning the daily grind into a game, he became his own RPG character, and was hooked on the thrill of honing and enhancing his skills. This realisation led to a number of business ventures, culminating in the founding of The Octalysis Group which helps companies engage with consumers through behavioural science and gameful design. In this inspiring conversation, he explores the frameworks you can adopt to begin excelling in your life.

After spending thousands of hours mastering video games, young Yu Kai Chou realized that he felt a deep sense of emptiness. That epiphany inspired his research that has now affected more than 1 BILLION people worldwide. In a quest to make real life more appealing than video games, he began studying the science of how developers create virtual worlds that satisfy our needs & make us want to spend time there. He has spent decades learning how to apply the core drives found in games to real life. In this episode we talk about why most gamers are actually women, core drives, how games can help solve real world problems & meet real world needs (like learning algebra) and how parents can apply these strategies to tap into core drives of our children to teach them effectively.  When I started this episode, I didn’t quite know what to expect, but by the end, I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was one of my most informative & insightful podcast episodes ever. It opened up my world to an entirely new field of study & I hope it will do the same for you!    Some other topics we touched on are:  -Why governments & big organizations are calling on Yu kai -Why women make up a huge percentage of gamers -Origin of the “typical” gamer stereotype -What is gamification? -Why habits don’t need motivation  -Everyone plays a real life game -Search for epic meaning & calling -Lowest hanging fruit in making an experience enjoyable -The human need for social interaction -Best applications of gamification in real world -Our search for something rare drives us -2nd graders learning algebra  -Applying gamification to parenting -Understanding core drives of our children -What are you rewarding? -The power of family identity - Lex Luther, Game of Thrones -Teaching the important things -How outspoken faith has impacted his journey -Message on his heart -Next Interview      Resources mentioned:    “Actionable Gamification: Beyond Points, Badges & Leaderboards” by Yu Kai Chou   Octalysis Prime education platform by Yu Kai Chou   “Reality is Broken: Why Games Make Us Better & How they Can Change the World” by Jane McGonigal    “SuperBetter: The Power of Living Gamefully” by Jane McGonigal    Follow Yu Kai’s journey on FB or IG @yudashkai

Today we’re talking with one of the pioneers of Gamification, Yu-Kai Chou, author of the book Actionable Gamification and creator of the Octalysis Framework which encompasses 8 core drives of motivation that govern human behavior. He's a speaker on gamification and behavioral design at places like TED, South by Southwest, Google, Stanford and consulted with governments like UK, Singapore and South Korea. His work has affected over 1 Billion users experiences across the world. Henry spends some time with Yu-Kai discussing his unique research into what motivates us and how that can be used to achieve the remarkable in this world. Yu-Kai gives us an overview of his gamification methodology alongside poignant examples while helping us see how our goals as citizens of the Kingdom and entrepreneurs can be reached by understanding the right ways to motivate ourselves and the ones we lead. He steps us through both White Hat (intrinsic) and Black Hat (extrinsic) motivators and reveals optimal scenarios to increase motivation, effectiveness and longevity of teams. Gamification isn’t just for the gamer but has implications for anyone who seeks to be part of something greater or just wants to live a more joy-filled life.

Gamification, detta magiska, lite barnsliga, lekfulla ord, som ska generera så mycket pengar. Vad handlar det om egentligen? Hur applicerar man spelmekanismer i andra sammanhang utan att det känns krystat? Jan Bidner flyttar fokuset från knappar och poäng på skärmen till användaren och hens drivkrafter. Börja med dig själv: Hur designar man ett gränssnitt så att det blir optimalt för just mig? Kanske kickas din kreativa process igång av enkla, utmanande begränsningar, som Twitters 140 tecken? Låt inte tjänsten bli ett nödvändigt ont, som sänker humöret och tempot hos användaren. Gör användarupplevelsen roligare, mer meningsfullt! Twitter Gamification är ett verktyg i UX-designlådan. Vilka drag har spelaren i ett visst läge, hur vinner hen, vilken feedback får hen? Progressbaren i LinkedIn är ett tydligt exempel på hur detta används. Hälsoappar är en annan. Hur hänger gamification ihop med BI (business intelligence)? Energibolagen arbetar med BI, presenterar massor av information. Men vilka drag har användaren, hur kan hen agera på informationen? Ta med användarna i utvecklingsprocessen, se spelaren! Hur engagerar man ungdomar, spelare, som idag tar 100 beslut per minut på en arbetsplats där takten är fyra beslut per minut. Boredom bug. “Vad engagerar dig?” är första frågan. Vi drivs av vår inre motivation: Autonomy (kunna påverka sin situation), Mastery (kunna utvecklas), Purpose (ha ett högre syfte) och Relatedness (känna samhörighet).
