Motivation, the internal condition that activates behavior and gives it direction, energizes and directs goal-oriented behavior.
Some of the basic desires that drive human behavior are: |
• Acceptance, the need for approval
• Curiosity, the need to think
• Eating, the need for food
• Family, the need to raise children
• Honor, the need to be loyal to the traditional values of one's clan/ethnic group
• Idealism, the need for social justice
• Independence, the need for individuality
• Order, the need for organized, stable, predictable environments
|
• Physical Activity, the need for exercise
• Power, the need for influence of will
• Romance, the need for sex
• Saving, the need to collect
• Social Contact, the need for friends (peer relationships)
• Status, the need for social standing/importance
• Tranquility, the need to be safe
• Vengeance, the need to strike back
|
The hierachy of human needs theory by Abraham Maslow's hierachy of human needs theory might be summarized, “If you deliberately plan on being less than you are capable of being, then I warn you that you'll be unhappy for the rest of your life.”
Inspiration, to be “influenced or animated with an idea or purpose”, from the Latin “in” + spirare “to breathe”, would feel like the breathe of God entering into one's life.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain

To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciated beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a little better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition, to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Perseverance (Lincoln)
“He failed in business in ’31. He was defeated for state legislator in ’32.He tried another business in '33. It failed. His fiancee died in ’35. He had a nervous breakdown in ’36. In ’43 he ran for congress and was defeated. He tried again in ’48 and was defeated again. He tried running for the Senate in ’55. He lost. The next year he ran for Vice President and lost. In ’59 he ran for the Senate again and was defeated. In 1860, the man who signed his name A. Lincoln, was elected the 16th President of the United States. The difference between history’s boldest accomplishments, and its most staggering failures is often, simply, the diligent will to persevere.”
