various types of motivation along with example
The reading passage and the lecture followed it both revolve around a concept called "Motivation".
The lecture is in harmony with the passage and besides it provides a story of a girl named "Marnie" as an example to provide a clear view on the topic.
Firstly, in the story of Marnie said by the lecturer, she was a girl with great liking towards singing. She started singing right from her childhood. She never expected any reward or attention from people for her singing. She enjoyed every minute and moment of her singing process. As a result she gained pleasure and self-fulfillment, this resulted in the intrinsic motivation in her as stated in the passage by the author where the person gives more prominence to pleasure and satisfaction rather than monetary goods and services.
Secondly, as she continued to sing in the school functions, ceremonies etc, she gained fame, sometimes she was even invited to picnic spots to sing songs. Eventually she started earning money and now the intrinsic motivation accompained with extrinsic motivation, the other form of motivation stated in the passage where we seek monetary things in return for the activities we perform. So Marnie led a peaceful life with money and satisfaction.
Thirdly, as the demand for her songs in public places increased her interest towards singing started to erode. At the movement when she got an offer from a reputed organisation for singing, she was no way interested in singing but she agreed only for the the sum of money they offered. So finally her extrinsic motivation dominated the intrinsic motivation this situation is called "over justification".
All in all, as stated in the passage motivation is sum of needs and wants that cause a person to act.
