What defines motivation and how does it affect human behavior? This term comes from the word ‘motive’. It is the inner power that pushes you toward taking action and toward achievement. The strong desire to do and accomplish something that important to you. It is the zest, driving force, energy, and the fire burning inside you that keeps you going toward a certain goal. The power that makes you wake up each morning with energy, ready to start your day and work to accomplish your goals. Motivation means enthusiasm, eagerness, passion and interest. The ambition and the desire to do and accomplish things. Motivation is powered by desire and ambition, and therefore, if they are absent, motivation is absent too. Sometimes, motivation is triggered by external factors, such as a book about successful people, a movie, a certain event or pep talk. These factors awaken the desire to take action, follow a dream, or just carry a certain task. These factors or triggers can be strong and motivating, and push you forward, until you accomplish what you set out to do. Sometimes, the trigger might wear off after a while, and you need another dose of incentive factors. Sometimes, you might have the desire to get something done or achieve a certain goal, but if the desire and ambition are not strong enough, you will lack the push, the initiative, and the willingness to take the necessary action. In these cases, there is a lack of motivation and inner drive, and you need, in some way or another, awaken them. When there is motivation, there is initiative and direction, courage, energy, and the persistence to follow your goals.

Motivation gets stronger, when you have a vision, a clear mental image of what you want to achieve, and also a strong desire to manifest it. In such a situation, motivation awakens inner strength and power, and pushes you forward, toward making your vision a reality. Motivation can be applied to every action and goal in life. You need motivation and enthusiasm to: Learn a foreign language Strive to get good grades at school Take a walk every day Exercise your body Make more money Get a better job Own a business Become a writer, a doctor or a lawyer This is just a short list. There might be other goals that are more applicable to you. Motivation is available, whenever there is a clear vision, precise understanding of what you want to do, a strong desire, and faith in your abilities. Motivation Is One of the Most Important Keys to Success When there is lack of motivation and incentive, you either get no results, or only mediocre ones, whereas, when there is motivation, you attain greater and better results and achievements. Compare a student who lacks motivation and who hardly studies, to a student who is highly motivated, and who devotes many hours to his studies. Each student will get absolutely different grades. Lack of motivation means lack of enthusiasm, zest, incentive and ambition, whereas the possession of motivation is a sign of strong desire, energy and enthusiasm, and the willingness to do whatever it takes to achieve what one sets out to do.
