Motivation of achievements

-

Motivation of achievements - a psychological term, referred to as the state of readiness to take actions aimed at achieving, achieving a specific goal. The need to feel internally induces the choice of the direction of action chosen for the goal. The goal, according to the theory of purpose (Locke, Latham, 1990), lies in the foundation of human activity, triggers the tension that human beings seek to achieve in order to reduce the tension. The fullness of the process is the fulfillment of goals, which we can call achievement. The idea that motivates achievement is the main motivation for maintaining or raising as high as possible your own skills, which can lead to success (achievement) or failure. The motive for achievement itself is often referred to as the tendency to compete with quality standards.

Components of motivation for achievement are:

Research on the phenomenon of motives of accomplishments was conducted by David McClelland and John Atkinson (1960-1970). This concept has many components such as:

Different concepts of motivation perception:

John William Atkinson - motivations for accomplishments are defined as undertaken by units of action for the purpose of performing them, judged by a specific standard of excellence. Targeted activities are the result of two extremely different motivations: the tendency to succeed and the tendency to avoid failure. The human entity strives, or vice versa, to avoid activities aimed at achieving the goal, depending on which of these tendencies is dominant. In general, the principle is that the probability of success is the greater the easier it is to achieve the goal, and the incentive that is the success is the greater that it is achievable.

Janusz Reykowski - motivates us to use the success-failure category in the context of reality. The tendency is to face ever higher demands, to see in the world of standards and to strive to achieve them. This is a stimulating mechanism for competing with each other as well as with others, so as to strive to rise up.

David McClelland plays a key role in the notion of achievement motivation. Their formation is confirmed when the state of waiting and the actual state causes divergence. The greater the negative emotions are born, the opposite in the case of positive emotions. McClelland's theory states that the desire to achieve a goal or perform a task better is a source of motivation.

He was the Minister of Armed Forces, a close associate of Trujillo, which did not prevent him from accepting Trujillo's murder in 1961 from the American consul in the Dominican Republic, Henry Dearborn.

Myrmex Indikos

Myrmex Indikos, pol. Indian ant - an alleged species of gigantic ants (according to Herodot's description, larger than foxes, but smaller than dogs). The earliest mention of these creatures is dated to the fifth century BC, and its author is Herodotus. According to her, these ants inhabited the deserts of Persia and India and extracted gold from their sands. Several such creatures were kept in the residence of the King of Persia. Gold was to be obtained by caravans made up of several camels in the heat of the day, when the ants were protected underground. You had to do it quickly, because the ants sensed the smell of people and went on the pursuit, and they were deadly dangerous. This story is confirmed by the next accounts: Nearchos, one of the army officers of Alexander Macedoński, and Megastenes - a historian and traveler.
