If he cannot find a job, he may resort to begging or stealing to survive. Feeling a need motivates goal-directed behaviour.
- Fulfilment of Need: When a person's needs are met, they feel motivated and less stressed. If an attempt fails, the demand remains unmet. In such a circumstance, the individual may look for an alternative action.
