Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Why is extrinsic motivation bad? External motivation often creates pressure and, contrary to what you may think, our brain just doesn’t work well under pressure. We become less happy. The brain’s levels of the neurotransmitters serotonin and dopamine decrease.

Detailed explanation-2: -Extrinsic motivation uses rewards or incentives-like praise, fame, or money-as motivation for specific activities. It is based on external factors and may be less effective long-term than intrinsic motivation. Extrinsic motivation is a type of operant conditioning, which is a form of behavior modification.
