Motivation refers to all the subconscious anomalies that are responsible for “driv[ing] an individual to action” (Gouws 2015:217). Motivation consists of two components; movement and purpose. Movement explains the action behind the intention and purpose refers to the route an individual may take to be able to achieve their goal (Gouws 2015:217)
