1.

Diversity

Image Source

You are driven by a need to have variety in your life. You appreciate life and want to enjoy more experiences. You might be into adventure, trying different things, seeing new places, meeting new people. Travelling is something you might be very interested in, because it allows you to see more of the world. You tend to get bored easily and quickly, because you're constantly feeling like there's more you can experience in life.
2.

Challenge/ Growth

Image Source

You are driven by a need to keep learning and growing. Since young, you would have invested a fair bit of time and money to learn through courses, books, certifications, and you're still learning. When you're interested, you will go to great lengths to understand more about a subject matter.
3.

Love/ Belonging

Image Source

You are driven to establish that connection from being with others, or connection with your self (or even with the Divine). You value being part of a cause or group and appreciate the feeling of being loved, accepted and welcomed. If self love is highly important to you, you will find yourself valuing your independence very highly - and you might not be very comfortable allowing someone else to take care of you, especially financially.
4.

Achievement

You are driven by your need to see things through to its completion. You may be used to things like having goals and there is a satisfaction when you can see your plan working and when you are able to check items off your list. Achievement does not mean winning, it means seeing something through to the end. You might be gravitated towards goal setting and achieving. Having milestones might help too. You might have sleepless nights thinking about something you've been meaning to complete, but couldn't yet - manage this for some peace of mind.
5.

Recognition/ Significance

Image Source

You are driven by how you are perceived in your environment. You value being noticed, appreciated, acknowledged, rewarded and recognised. For you, achievement is not as important as knowing that you are valued because you have achieved something. Your goals or desires in life may include having a big house or car, or nice and branded items like clothes, watches, etc. You have lofty dreams, and with the right action, you will get there.
6.

Responsibility/ Contribution

Image Source

You are driven by your need to contribute to others. You might find yourself volunteering, or helping people by sharing your time, money or even just a listening ear or shoulder to cry on. For you, there is a big advantage in knowing that you can help others, and this help can be in any form - it can be time you spend at a charity organisation or event, money you donate or even money you loan or give people you know (like family and friends), and more. You achieve great satisfaction when you give - it fulfills you
7.

Control/ Security

Image Source

You are driven by the need to establish control over situations in your life, with the main aim of knowing that you will have that security or stability. Some things you might do, is to be careful with your money because long term stability is important to you. You might have a Plan B for anything you do, so that there is something safe you can fall back on. You are careful and meticulous when it comes to ensuring that you have a safety net which can help you for life.
8.

Excellence

Image Source

You are driven by a need to do things well. In anything you do, there's a satisfaction in knowing that you did your best. You could be a perfectionist, and that's good...just be careful not to let it overpower or take over your life. You may find yourself finding for errors in documents or in any work you do - personal or professional. You may tend to overanalyse as well, but this satisfies you, and you take great pride in knowing that no work you do will be done without care.
