what is meant by motivation? Mention the function of frontal lobes of brain?

Moving towards the division between the two hemispheres, the middle portion of the frontal lobe generates our motivation and general impetus. If this part of the brain is affected, people can lose their 'get up and go', becoming lethargic and reluctant to get out of bed or perform particular activities. It is important to realize that what some might see as laziness could be a direct consequence of the loss of cells in this area of the brain.
The frontal lobe contains several parts, which all act together to form our 'executive' or management' centre. These parts carry out the following activities:
* Planning,action and learning new tasks.
*  Motivation
* Regulation of behaviour
