Special Issue on Psychology of Motivation
Motivation is the reason for people's actions, willingness and
goals. Motivation is derived from the word motive which is defined as a need
that requires satisfaction. These needs could also be wants or desires that are
acquired through influence of culture, society, lifestyle, etc. or generally
innate. Motivation is one's direction to behavior, or what causes a person to
want to repeat a behavior, a set of force that acts behind the motives. An individual's
motivation may be inspired by others or events (extrinsic motivation) or it may
come from within the individual (intrinsic motivation). Motivation has been
considered as one of the most important reasons that inspire a person to move
forward.
