A Biological Theory Of Motivation
Content: The Psychoanalytic Theory suggests that motivated behaviors follow fundamental drives to survive and avoid death. The Humanistic Theory presents the Maslow Hierarchy, where people strive to achieve their maximum potential. Instinctual responses, drive reduction, arousal, psychological and humanistic drives are the varied aspects of the powerful neural drives, which ultimately motivate people. The Intuition Theory suggests that these drives are powered by the intuitive choices of the mind. Intuition focuses the nervous system on an activity. Wisdom, or emotions decide. Strategic drives use coded knowledge to achieve objectives. Motivation is limited by neural wisdom. Excellence is delivered by wider knowledge and skills. Excellence results in flow.
