When we are properly motivated to do something, we can feel more zip in our stride and a greater urgency to perform the assignment in front of us. This is an emotive reaction to the task at hand that is often outside of our conscious thought. When you are motivated not to do something, such as giving up smoking or quitting a similar habit, emotions are also at play. Guilt, for example, when you don't stick to your task can motivate you to try again with greater effort. Also, the feeling of pride when we feel like we are doing something well can motivate us to keep at it and try even harder.
