Individual"s emotional and cognitive motivation (includes motivation but is more than motivation), particularly a focused, intense, persistent, purposive effort toward work related- goals. High level of absorption (focusing intensely on the task with limited awareness of events beyond that work) High self-efficacy (the belief that you have the ability, role clarity, and resources to get the job done) Needs (ex: drive for food but need for brunch) Hardwired brain activity (neural states) that energize individuals through generation of emotions to correct deficiencies and maintain equilibrium. Prime movers of behaviour activate emotions that put us in a state of readiness.
