Self-motivation drives us to keep going, to take opportunities, and to show commitment to what we want to achieve. In this webinar, we bridge self-motivation with meaningful activity that is tailored to an individual’s needs and preferences. We will explore tasks of daily living, physical function, and the importance of engaging in meaningful activity.
