What is motivation?
MOTIVATION is the driving force by which humans achieve their goals. Motivation is said to be intrinsic or extrinsic.
MOTIVATION may be rooted in a basic need to minimize physical pain and maximize pleasure, a desired object, goal, state of being, ideal, or it may be attributed to less-apparent reasons such as altruism, selfishness, morality, or avoiding mortality.
DEFINE MOTIVATION FOR YOURSELF
What gets one person motivated may not work for someone else. Having a luxury car may work for one, but for another making a difference in other people’s lives may be their biggest desire. You must define motivation for yourself. You must know what your own values and principles are. What really gets you excited? What makes you feel good about yourself? What are your spiritual guidelines? What is it you want?
Intrinsic motivation
• Intrinsic motivation refers to motivation that is driven by an interest or enjoyment in the task itself, and exists within the individual rather than relying on any external pressure
extrinsic motivationExtrinsic motivation comes from outside of the individual. Common extrinsic motivations are rewards like money and grades, coercion and threat of punishment. Competition is in general extrinsic because it encourages the performer to win and beat others, not to enjoy the intrinsic rewards of the activity
Way of success

Think about WHY you want it.
Then , take risk to reach your goal
SEVEN RULES OF
MOTIVATION
RULE -1Set a major goal, but follow a path. The path has mini
goals that go in many directions.
When you learn to succeed at mini
goals, you will be motivated to
challenge grand goals.
RULE-2
Finish what you start. A half finished project is of no use to anyone. Quitting is a habit. Develop the habit of finishing self-motivated projects.
RULE-3Socialize with others of similar interest. Mutual support is motivating. We will develop the attitudes of our five best friends. If they are losers, we will be a loser. If they are winners, we will be a winner. To be a cowboy we must associate with cowboys.
RULE-4Learn how to learn. Dependency on others for knowledge supports the habit of procrastination. Man has the ability to learn without instructors. In fact, when we learn the art of self-education we will find, if not create, opportunity to find success beyond our wildest dreams.
RULE-5
Harmonize natural talent with interest that motivates. Natural talent creates motivation, motivation creates persistence and persistence gets the job done.
RULE-6
Increase knowledge of subjects that inspires.
The more we know about a subject, the
more we want to learn about it. A self-propelled
upward spiral develops.
RULE-7
Take risk. Failure and bouncing back are elements of motivation. Failure is a learning tool. No one has ever succeeded at anything worthwhile without a string of failures.
