Personal Narrative Analysis
Psychological motives involve biological, social, and personal motives. In my daily life, I encounter biological motives in every situation. These are the necessities of every human being which have to be satisfied. I’ve been experiencing an intense desire for sleep because I don’t get to have enough sleep during week days due to school and priorities. There are also some instances wherein I have to deal with the avoidance of pain in order to meet success. One time, we had our project out of school and I wasn’t feeling well but we have to finish our task as to what is expected from us. I tried acting like everything’s alright and fortunately, I was able to fulfill the tasks given to me. Hunger is always part of my daily struggles. When I feel
this motive, I am more likely to satisfy it whatever chances it may take because it is one of the important things that we should not ignore. Sex motive is another thing but it has nothing to do with our necessity. It is normal to feel this motive but when I do, I just give my attention to other things that I may be interested more with. The secondary motives are the social motives. I almost always have this experience at school. I become aggressive when something unexpected happens like when I get low grades on quizzes or exams. I will always have the power to strive even harder so that it will not happen again in the future. Achievement motive comes when I have done something good to be proud of like when I passed my midterm grades, I felt really proud even if they are not really high, for I know that I can do even better during finals. My personal motives explain everything about me. I have many goals in life which I don’t know if I will be able to achieve them. It’s as if my level of aspiration is not really good because I have chosen something I’ve never really wanted, my chosen career. My interests are so much far from it. I have so much passion for singing and dancing because I feel like it is my freedom. I can show my feelings by means of expressing them without explaining detail by detail. My goal as of now is to overcome my fears. I want to bring pride for my loved ones and be able to show them that I am capable and nothing is impossible.
