What is Motivation? Motivation is the willingness to do something and is conditioned by the desire to satisfy some need of the individual, (A need in our terminology is some internal state that makes certain outcomes appear attractive). People who have motivation exert more or take efforts to perform better than those who are not motivated. Job performance =Ability x Motivation
SIMILARITIES??? Difference between motivation, satisfaction, inspiration and manipulation. Satisfaction is contentment. Inspiration is discreet and brings about a change in thinking pattern. Manipulation is done a predetermined way(often negative).
