"Are we wired to be passive and inert? Or are we wired to be active and engaged? I'm convinced it's the latter--that our basic nature is to be curious and self-directed. And I say that not because I'm a dewy-eyed idealist, but because I've been around young children ... Have you ever seen a six-month-old or a one-year-old who's *not* curious and self-directed? I haven't. That's how we are out of the box."

I've had people suggest or ask why I don't do more crocheting or knitting for commission, and my response has been "Because then it's work." But I will occasionally do something for some barter with a friend if it's a project I'll enjoy working on. Boom. Intrinsic motivation vs extrinsic. This seems very clear and logical to me so far.
