It seems to me like you are describing inspiration and not motivation, when discussing internal motivation.

Motivation is the why of what you are doing, inspiration is the Eye of the Tiger montage when you are doing something that seems to go well.

Your motivation for brushing your teeth may for example be to avoid a trip to the dentist.
