1. Theory of Motivation

Maslow 1954 states that motivation is the human ‟s action that is driven by a need to fulfill in order to achieve a higher purpose of life called self-actualization p.301. He assumes human as a animal that wants to prey others for his satisfaction. When a person satisfies this one, still another clamor for satisfaction. It is the characteristic of human life that people almost always desire something. Maslow divides the motivation into five stages, which are physiological, safety, social, esteem, and self-actualization. Maslow describes human needs in the shape of hierarchical diagram. In this manner, Maslow ‟s model indicates that fundamental, lower-order needs like safety and physiological requirements have to be satisfied in order to pursue higher-level motivators along the lines of self-fulfilment. In Maslow ‟s diagram; or sometimes called Maslow ‟s needs pyramid; lower factor needs must be satisfied before continuing to satisfy the higher needs. Here is the diagram of five stages of motivation from Maslow:
