Intrinsic and extrinsic motivation.

Explanation:

In psychology, there are mainly two distinct types of motivation i. e the intrinsic and the extrinsic motivation through which an individual is able to perform certain activities of his or her life.

Intrinsic motivation is described as a motivation in which an individual is being motivated to perform a specific task internally i. e it comes from within an individual to perform that task.

Extrinsic motivation is described as a type of motivation in which an individual certain task to get some external rewards, for example, affection, good grades, presents, etc.
