External motivation, Social pressure, and self motivation.
Understanding motivation is key to unlocking our potential and striving towards our goals. Generally, motivation can be categorized into three distinct types: Intrinsic, Extrinsic, and Amotivation. Each plays a vital role in how we pursue our ambitions and face challenges.
Intrinsic Motivation: This type stems from within; it's about engaging in activities for their inherent satisfaction and personal reward. When you're intrinsically motivated, you do things because they are naturally enjoyable or align with your personal values and interests. This is often seen in pursuits where the journey itself is the reward.
Extrinsic Motivation: In contrast, extrinsic motivation is driven by external factors or rewards. This could be working hard to earn a promotion, studying to achieve high grades, or pursuing a trophy in sports. While the activity might not be inherently satisfying, the outcome or reward provides sufficient motivation.
Amotivation: This refers to a lack of motivation altogether. In situations where individuals cannot identify with the task at hand or see its value, motivation diminishes, leading to a decrease in effort and engagement.
For those seeking to ignite their drive and harness these types of motivation, I highly recommend exploring motivational content that resonates with you. A perfect example is the "Go Prove It - Motivational Speech," available on my YouTube channel. This speech is a powerful reminder that regardless of the type of motivation, the essence of proving to yourself what you're capable of achieving lies within.
"Go Prove It" is not just a speech; it's a call to action to leverage whatever form of motivation drives you and channel it towards accomplishing your dreams. Whether you find motivation within yourself, through external rewards, or need that spark to overcome amotivation, this speech serves as a catalyst to propel you forward.

The two types of motivation theories are intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation. Intrinsic motivation comes from within oneself, driven by personal enjoyment or satisfaction. Extrinsic motivation, on the other hand, arises from external factors like rewards or consequences.
The Situational Motivation Scale (SIMS) is a self-report instrument used in psychology to assess an individual's motivation in a specific situation. It measures different types of motivation, such as intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, and amotivation, to understand why individuals engage in certain activities. Researchers and practitioners often use the SIMS to study and evaluate motivation in various contexts.
The three types of motives are biological motives, social motives, and personal motives. Biological motives are driven by physiological needs such as hunger and thirst. Social motives are influenced by interpersonal interactions and relationships. Personal motives are driven by individual desires and goals.
Cognitive evaluation theory suggests that different types of motivation can be influenced by the perceptions of autonomy and competence. When individuals feel a sense of autonomy and competence in their tasks, they are more likely to experience intrinsic motivation, which is driven by personal satisfaction and internal rewards. Conversely, when these perceptions are lacking, motivation may become more extrinsic, driven by external factors like rewards or deadlines.
Motivation and emotion are closely related in that emotions can drive motivation. For example, feeling happy and excited about a goal can increase motivation to achieve it. Emotions can also influence the intensity and persistence of motivation, as strong negative emotions like fear or anger can hinder motivation, while positive emotions can enhance it.
