Motivation

  • 8 months ago
Motivation is the reason why someone does something. Motivation is the drive that pushes someone to act according to a desired goal. Motivation comes from the Latin word motivus, which means “the cause that moves”, indicating the activating nature of the processes involved.

Motivation is important because it can help someone to overcome challenges, face problems, achieve aspirations, and attain satisfaction. Motivation also can enhance someone’s self-confidence, optimism, and spirit. Without motivation, someone will easily give up, despair, and feel powerless.

Some ways to increase motivation are by setting clear, realistic, and specific goals; making a structured and measurable action plan; finding positive sources of inspiration; surrounding oneself with supportive and encouraging people; rewarding oneself for every achievement; and always being grateful for what one has.
