2.3.1. Russian Physiologist Ivan Pavlov theorized that people behave in a autonomous action in response to a cause.

This action becomes autonomous because a red light is associated with danger .

This can be a source of frustration the real world does not align with the 'quality world' I believe this is a prime source of motivation in people.
