Types of Motivation
Motivation can be experienced as either internal in the form of push motivation or external as in the case of pull motivation
Push motivation is described in terms of biological variables originating in a person’s brain and nervous system and psychological variables that represent the properties of a person's mind.
Pull motivation is understood as environmental variables that describe external sources of motivation, like incentives or goals
Our evolutionary history and our individual personal histories shed light on how our lifelong experiences shape our motives.
