English synopsis available

Opus is an ideal of perfection, a goal that requires total dedication, absolute commitment and an unconditional determination in all sectors and fields. These types of achievements require such passion that they cannot be generated by external factors. What we need is what psychologists call intrinsic motivation, which is better known as self-motivation. So how do we activate it? How do we promote it in others? At a time when self-motivation is difficult, in which individualistic society forces us to count solely on ourselves, Pietro Trabucchi answers these questions to show us not just how strong self-motivation can be, but also how we can activate and train it independently.
