Motivation is what causes an individual to move towards a goal. Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs explains that individuals are motivated to fulfill basic physiological needs like hunger and thirst before progressing to higher level needs. Self-motivation involves breaking large tasks into small steps and starting action without waiting for inspiration. Effective motivational strategies include finding new skills, getting feedback, expanding abilities, and rotating work assignments. Setting specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound goals can help achieve success through responsibility, hard work, persistence, creativity, commitment, and learning.
