qualitative research refers to defining the meaning of the concept and title description. Self-motivation exists as
a result of self-encouragement, as a result of a desire that he fulfils. Moreover, if this desire is really desired or
aspired to, then any struggle will still be successful. Plus, we really like these activities, so we are more
motivated. People who like to create works require not only motivation but also imagination. Remember
moments from events or incidents with friends, family, or others. Reality exists only in one's own mind.
Imagination in literature can also be translated into whatever the author wants today and in the future.
