Morrow · Answer 1

intrinsic motivation is when you are motivated to complete an activity or a task. there is something within you that causes the pleasure for completing the task it is a boost of energy that comes from the inside. Something that motivates us to persuit our desired goals. Extrinsic motivation is when you complete that activity or task so as not to be punished or earn a reward. Something that you have to do because it is compulsory

Armstrong · Answer 2

Striving towards the goal for personal satisfaction and happiness is called intrinsic motivation. Whereas extrinsic motivation happens to achieve for something or to get rid of punishment.

Extrinsic motivation always comes from outside that is based on the things that we get from outside. Whereas intrinsic motivation is similar to self-motivation where it comes from within.

Both type of motivation enable us to be successful and to achieve our goals. It pushes our mind towards the target / achievement and show the path towards the success.
