Motivation is seen to be made up of a number of concepts either on its own or a combination of a number of them called needs, motives, goals or drive. To distinguish between the meanings of these terms is important;
(a) Needs
A need is a condition of lack of something required, which the organism finds necessary to satisfy itself in order to maintain its existing balance.
(b) Motives
Motive refers to goal directed behaviour and energizing conditions within the organism that drives behaviour. It is generally used to refer to certain conditions within the individual.

Drive is an innate force that influences people to act in certain ways.
