as well as contemporary motivational theory, the meaning of motivation is the 'reason' underlying an act committed by an individual. A person is said to have high motivation can be interpreted that person has a very strong reason to achieve what he wants by doing his current job. Unlike the motivations in the sense that developed in a society that is often equated with the 'spirit', like the example in the conversation "I want my child has a high motivation". This statement can mean that the parents want their children have a high learning spirit. So, it should be understood that there are different uses of the term motivation in society. Some interpret motivation as a reason, and others interpret motivation equally with spirit.
In the relationship between motivation and intensity, the intensity is related to how enterprising a person is, but high intensity does not produce satisfactory work performance unless the effort is associated with a favorable direction to the organization. [2] Instead the last element, persistence, is a measure of how long a person can keep his business. [2]
