Motivational System Theory begins by emphasizing the need to understand that motivational processes operate in collaboration with other system components. In a nutshell, the effective pursuit of personal goals (aka human functioning) requires four essential elements:

# The person must have the motivation needed to initiate and maintain goal pursuit until the desired outcome is attained.
# The person must have the knowledge and skills needed to construct and execute actions that will produce the desired outcomes.
# The person’s biological structure and functioning must be able to support the motivation and knowledge and skills elements required for successful goal pursuit.
# The person’s environment must facilitate, or at least not excessively impede, progress toward the desired outcome.
