Motivation is a powerful force that drives our behavior, pushing us toward change, whether it be within ourselves or in our environment. At its core, motivation is the energy behind persistent, goal-directed actions. When we're motivated, we don't just sit still; we move and take action.

It's the kind of motivation where a person engages in an activity "for its own sake" because they find it inherently interesting and enjoyable. Intrinsic motivation is the purest form of motivation, as it arises from within and propels individuals to take action because they genuinely want to.
