You can be motivated by any external factor. Sometimes, without thinking about it, you decide to do anything as you are influenced by watching many movies, reading a book, etc. Thinking that it will benefit you in some of the other but such motivational won’t last for a long time. It’s temporary just like these days WhatsApp status are, only visible for a day that is 24 hours, just because you are being benefited, it can be in the form of money, reward or promotion or there can be many other reasons you show your willingness to do that work.
