Abstract

The achievement motivation is one of very important aspects of humanitarian motivation system. It is a fundamental component in the process of individual's realization, behavior guidance, and self-actualization through goals achievement. Scientists and researchers, such as McClelland, indicate that the achievement motivation is a default configuration that means the feeling of evaluative performance, where there is a competition to achieve the excellence standards. It is also that feeling of failure, through the individual's endeavors to exert maximum effort and struggle for success and achieve the best and superiority over others. (21)
