Motivation is the core to being successful. It drives passion, gives joy when goals are met, and gives us assurance in the face of failure. Motivation comes from two places: Intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation. Intrinsic motivation is motivation that comes from "internal" factors to meet personal needs. Examples of intrinsic motivation include exploring opportunities for personal development for the satisfaction of being competent in a task, or setting the standards to become a role model or mentor.
Extrinsic motivation on the other hand is when motivation comes from external factors that are given or controlled by others. Good example of extrinsic motivation is Salary and gifts. This type of motivation is everywhere and frequently used within society.
Intrinsic motivation is internal it occurs when people are bound to do something out of satisfaction, significance or need while extrinsic motivation occurs when external factors make the person to do something.
