1. Volition: The ability to make conscious choices and


sustain actions towards goals. Types include cognitive
(thought-based decision-making) and conative (desire to
act) volition.

2. Activity: Dynamic interactions with the environment,


involving both inner and external actions. Types include
play, learning, and labor.

3. Motivation: Initiates, directs, and sustains goal-oriented


behavior. Can be intrinsic (internal desires) or extrinsic
(external rewards). Characteristics include arousal,
persistence, and direction.

4. Describe Your Activity:

influenced by internal and external factors.
- Objective: Engages in activities for personal growth,
learning, and meaningful contributions.
- Means: Utilizes skills, knowledge, and resources to
achieve specific goals and overcome challenges.
- Result: Accomplishes tasks, gains new skills, and
progresses towards desired outcomes.
5. Improving Strength of Will:

steps.
- Practice Self-Control: Engage in activities like
meditation or exercise.
- Build Habits: Establish positive routines to reinforce
desired behaviors.

Here's a concise summary of the key points about
motives:

- Definition: Motive is a stable internal psychological


cause that drives a person's behavior and actions.

- Motives of Volitional Actions:


- Main Motives: Primary reasons that directly induce a
person to act, such as a desire for knowledge or
achievement of a social position.
- Secondary Motives: Supporting reasons that contribute
to actions but may not be the primary driving force.

- Flexibility of Motives:
- Motives can vary in importance depending on
individual circumstances or contexts.
- The same motive can be primary for one person in a
specific situation and secondary for another person in a
different context.

For instance, one person may be primarily motivated by


the desire for knowledge in writing a dissertation,
considering social status as a secondary motive.
Conversely, another person might prioritize achieving a
certain social position as the main motive, viewing
knowledge acquisition as secondary.

In summary, motives are internal psychological causes


that underlie behavior, and they can vary in importance
and priority based on individual perspectives and
situational contexts.
