How to stay motivated

Motivation is the process by which goal-oriented behaviors are initiated, guided, and maintained. It is what motivates you to lose weight or get that promotion at work, for example. In short, motivation drives you to take actions that move you closer to your goals.
Motivation also includes factors that guide and sustain goal-directed behavior. However, such motivations are rarely directly visible. As a result, we must frequently infer the motivations behind people's actions based on observable behaviors.

Types Of Motivation

Extrinsic motivation originates outside of the individual and frequently includes external rewards such as trophies, money, social recognition, or praise.

Intrinsic motivation is internal and arises from within the individual, such as doing a difficult crossword puzzle solely for the pleasure of solving a problem.

Importance Of Motivation
Motivation is the driving force behind all human behavior. Understanding how motivation works and the factors that influence it is important for a variety of reasons.
Understanding motivation can:

• Improve your efficiency as you work toward your objectives.
• Encourage you to engage in health-related behaviors by motivating you to take action.
• Assist you in avoiding unhealthy or maladaptive behaviors like risk-taking and addiction.
• Assist you in feeling more in control of your life.
• Increase your overall happiness and well-being.
