Detailed explanation-1: -Many people incorrectly view motivation as a personal trait-that is, some people have it, and others don’t. But motivation is defined as the force that causes an individual to behave in a specific way. Simply put, a highly motivated person works hard at a job; an unmotivated person does not.
Detailed explanation-2: -Internal motivation is the extent to which employees commit extra effort based on their own levels of personal drive. They usually pursue achievement and success for two reasons: because they are passionate about the work, and/or they feel intense pride and satisfaction when they do their job well.
Detailed explanation-3: -Acknowledge their hard work and appreciate them whenever they perform something extraordinary. A pat on their back and simple words like “Wow”, “Well Done”, “Good job done” go a long way in motivating employees and influencing their behaviour. Appreciate them in front of others.
