What is the need for Motivation?


↣ “Motivation is a fuel in us which needs to be ignited with sparks, without motivation the best powers of the mind remain in a deep sleep”.
Often, a person has the desire and ambition to get something done or achieve a certain goal but lacks the push, the initiative and the willingness to take action. This is due to a lack of motivation and inner drive.

↣ Motivation strengthens ambition, increases initiative and gives direction, courage, energy, and persistence to follow one’s goals. A motivated person takes action and does  whatever it needs to achieve his/her goals

↣ Motivation is like a driving force in our lives. It comes from our desire to get success. Without success there is little pride in life; no enjoyment or excitement at work and at home. So it is very important for everybody to get motivated in order to get excellent results because Motivation creates the desire in the person to perform better than others or to perform in the best way. As we know every person is different so the right motivator is needed to motivate him.

Types of Motivation


There are two types of motivation, Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation. It is important to understand both types of motivation because some people respond best to intrinsic motivation, others may respond better to extrinsic motivation.

1) Intrinsic  Motivation:-


Intrinsic Motivation refers to motivation that exists within the individual rather than relying on any external pressures like money, reward, fame, etc

So basically the intrinsic motivation may be due to:

  • Happiness
  • Personal Goals
  • Desire to learn
  • Self-improvement


2)Extrinsic Motivation:-


Extrinsic Motivation refers to the type of motivation that is due to outside sources. In other words, we can say that the desire of the person to do work is controlled by outside sources like money, reward, fame, etc.

the extrinsic motivation may be due to:

  • Money
  • Rewards
  • Fame


Key points


 Motivation is the process by which a person’s efforts are energized, directed, and sustained 
  towards attaining a goal.

 Stay motivated and try to understand what motivates others.
