What Motivates Us?

Everything we do in life requires motivation. It may be the simple task of getting up in the morning or something more complex such as finishing a college degree. So, what exactly is it that drives us to complete such tasks? Are we all motivated by the same factors, or does it differ depending on the individual? The answers to these questions are not easily answered by a yes or no, but instead require us to dive deeper within the mind. Within my exhibit, I take a look at not only the genetics but also the environments of one another that come into play when answering questions revolving around the psychology of motivation.
