Provisional Definition

Motivation is willingness to commit effort, time, or other resources to achieve a self-determined (i.e. autonomously determined) objective.


Frequent Misuse

The term "motivation" is frequently misused to mean coercion. This is in fact different, as the objective in heteronomously determined. Such coercion may be called an incentive, but it is not motivation.
