In line with the above description, it is described Dimyati and Mudjiono 2009: 91 that Motivation may arise within someone,
which is known as the internal motivation, and it may come from
someone’s outside, which is known as an external motivation. Intrinsic motivation is a kind of force arising or functioning without the
presence of external stimuli. Here, individuals automatically tend to do something. In contrast, extrinsic motivation is an encouragement that
arises as a result of external stimuli which are responded to by the individual.
