A. Short answer type questions.
1. Name any two sources of motivation.

Ans. Books and Goals.
2. Write about any two factors influencing self-motivation.
Ans. Some of the factors that influence self motivation are as follows:
• Finding and Listing Motives (Needs and Desires): Self-motivation begins by identifying what drives you.
These can include both basic needs (like food, safety, and health) and personal desires (such as career goals,
relationships, or personal achievements). By listing your motives, you can clarify what you're striving for and create
a stronger sense of purpose.
• Finding Sources of Motivation and Inspiration: External sources of inspiration play a key role in fueling self-
motivation. These may include music, books, activities, or even role models. Listening to an inspiring song, reading
an uplifting story, or engaging in creative activities can reignite your passion and help you stay motivated.
3. What are the two types of motivation?
Ans. i. Intrinsic Motivation: An individual expresses a desire to do his or her job without any external reward.

a reward or to avoid punishment.
