Motivation Statement
Born in a middle class family in an underdeveloped country Nepal, I had never, in my early school days, thought that someday I would dedicate myself in the technical field greasing and fueling the rapidly accelerating shuttle of development and technological advancement. Gifted with a curious and a research oriented mind, from my early childhood till today, my most remarkable characteristic has been my curiosity to learn about new topics. I have a vivid picture of Encyclopedias in my mind as my best friends since primary school years. My keen interest for learning new ideas, when combined with my inner desire to reach a degree of excellence in every piece of work I perform, enabled me to acquire significant knowledge on various aspects of nature and technology, as well as leading me through a successful educational career. As the years passed, my eagerness towards science and technology got more and more specific, increasing my excitement to go deeper and deeper into my subject of interest to discover new ideas.
Technology has always fascinated me. The world of Communication Technology always has been my passion and keeping update with new inventions and discoveries within

With all these, I feel Masters program at Ulm University would be the a logical step towards extension of my academic pursuits, a major step towards achieving some of my life objectives and helping the development and economic growth of my country and people. You do have a lot to offer me, and at the same time, I am confident of contributing meaningfully to the academic and research endeavors at your university as well as to the techno-carving and technically sophisticating world. It is with this in mind that I am looking forward to a long and rewarding relationship with Ulm
All employees analyze their environment and strive to be recognized and rewarded for their hard work and dedication they put into the company, in a word they are seeking justice. Justice can be defined as a person receiving what they feel they are entitled to and if they do not receive what they deserve the situation may board on injustice. Unfortunately in today’s society justice and appreciation are not given out to all those deserving (Pinder, 1998). A major problem to address is how to keep the motivation level high in a company when the employees do not feel appreciated.
Motivation is the force that makes us do things: this is a result of our individual needs being satisfied (or met) so that we have inspiration to complete the task.
Motivation is a very broad term that is discussed in a variety of settings. There is the motivation to perform in a business setting, the motivation to perform on the field of competition, the motivation to provide for friends and family, and the motivation to accomplish goals that have been set. These are all various motivations that any one person can be involved with at any time. According to Maslow, motivation always exists within a person and in various forms, “...motivation is constant, never ending, fluctuating, and complex, and that it is an almost universal characteristic of practically every organismic state of affairs” (Maslow, 1954). As complex as motivation seems, it is everyone’s intention to identify their personal
I joined Jumpstart, because I saw the opportunity to help children who live in a impoverish community. I myself live in a impoverish community, and I understand the struggle to not have enough resources at home or parents with insufficient experience and time to help me with my studies. I want to be the motivation for the children to help them enjoy learning and find support in me for anything they need.
When teaching natural sciences and technology, teachers need to promote an understanding of seeing these subjects as activities to promote curiosity and enjoyment about the world and that what we encounter around us. The history of science and technology should also be integrated with other subjects. Science and technology should be seen as a contribution to social justice and societal development (Motshekga, 2011). A growing need of discovery in science and technology needs to be promoted in order to form interest in ourselves, society and
As you may have heard, Mr. Swift has made a very modest proposal about what to do with the situation of starvation among adults. Mr. Swift has proposed that after a year of a child's birth, they be eaten if the family wishes. I, being a mother of a baby, currently, could not approve of this proposal more. Me and my husband together, concur, this will allow us to not go hungry, but also fulfill our wish to have another baby. We've always wanted more kids, but we only desire a baby. We don't want them after they have grown older. We already have an older son. Now, with this proposal, we won't go hungry and we can stay full for months on end and all I must do is push out a baby. No big deal.
My father was a photographer back in Vietnam and also he had a love for computers. My father fascination with technology became what is my passion today. Ever since i was a child, as far back as my memory can go, i have always been surrounded by technology. Even though we had lived in a third world country and our technology was not advanced as other countries, I was still fascinated by how these machines works. Moving to The United States of America had a bigger impact on my passion than ever before. America is a first world country with all the new technology, in Vietnam, we still had big box TV, landline phone, motorcycles, big computers and more, and that all have changed in America, where everything is smaller and more compact, such as
I believe I would be a good candidate for this position because I consider myself to be an organized and optimistic person who is able to effectively balance her social and academic career while keeping her mental health in check. If I am selected to be Class 10’s representative, I will work with every member of our class to create an environment that promotes positivity and a strong sense of support.
I’m writing to you at this time because I love and miss you dearly. Every single day you are on my mind and I would be lying to you if I said I wasn’t worried. I am so proud that I have raised such a hard working, smart and ambitious daughter. Ever since you were a little girl you've had the sweetest soul with a heart of gold. Your passion to help others and dedicating your career to teaching kids how to read and write is inspiring to me. Although your passions and motivation is to help people around you makes me proud, your decision to continue that passion to a higher level of participating in the bomber factories this summer, frightens me terribly.
Motivation is the number one driving force behind anything and everything an individual does each day. “Motivation is the desire to do the best possible job or to exert the maximum effort to perform an assigned task. Motivation energizes, directs, and sustains human behavior directed towards a goal.” (Honor, 2009). Motivation can determine the outcome of projects, goals, and can set limits on what an individual can obtain or what they believe they can obtain. Motivation often is the deciding factor on how successful a project in an organization is, and an individual’s needs and desires can both influence a person’s motivation greatly. Motivation can also determine how well an individual does in school, college, or university.
I’ve always wanted to be an engineer. As I grew, so did my interest in electronics. I have taken apart and reassembled my computer so many times that it no longer worries my mother! My study boasts boxes of bought and salvaged components, soldering irons and stacks of electronics books. I taught myself HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, C++, C# and Java to help with ever more complex projects. To keep up with the latest developments in technology I read www.siliconrepublic.com and www.arstechnica.co.uk daily. I also subscribe to “Make: Magazine” and “Web Designer Magazine”.
Motivation is the “why” behind our behaviors. Behavior that is usually goal-oriented. The forces that lie beneath motivation can be biological, social, emotional or cognitive in nature. There are, indeed, a plethora of inducements that cause us to act the way we act and do the things we do. They include things like quenching our thirst, reading to gain knowledge, studying to ace an exam, surpassing quotas and meeting deadlines for a promotion, etc. According to Kendra Cherry’s article on “WHAT IS MOTIVATION”, there are three components of motivation: activation, persistence and intensity. Activation is the decision to initiate a behavior. Persistence is the continued effort toward a goal even though obstacles may exist. Intensity is the
My true passion for engineering began when I came across the quote: "Technology are devices that make our lives better". Despite my first love of mathematics, my recent interest for engineering has come from two major influences. The first being my mathematics and physics teachers, both engineers by nature, who have helped me enhance the fundamental skills essential for engineering and embrace the importance of the field. The second being the learning about uses of technology in Computer Science, it taught me the magnitude of which technology contributes to our everyday lives has led me to intensify my desire to improve the lives of others.
Technology is slowly becoming our present world. Every day new apps, cell phones, electronics etc. are being created. Technology is a ever growing field and it’s just going to keep growing. Technology essentially makes our lives easier. In this day and age
Motivation is one of the most discussed topics in the present era’s organisations, especially since renowned psychologists like Maslow and Herzberg are dedicating their efforts to understanding it. Companies are investing a significant amount of resources in improving productivity in order to maximise profits. One of these important resources is of human nature. In order to get the very best out of employees, some motivational approaches need to be used. But what is motivation and how do I successfully motivate? I will try to relate one of my personal experiences with a friend to some of the most influential motivational theories. After introducing my story and making a definition of motivation I will address the ideas of Taylor,
