I think it depends on the type of task too. Menial tasks often require extrinsic rewards to motivate someone to complete them, whereas highly complex and creative tasks are best completed by those motivated from within. Something I see all the time with my students.
I realized this far too late in life. It's not just sunk cost -- it's that it's not only my quality of life I'm risking if I try to make the change I feel like I need. 🤷🏼‍♂️
