Pay is one important factor that individuals consider, but it is not the most important factor
i belive ‘job enjoyment’ is the highest motivator, in addition to other important factors like exceptional leadership, ‘better treatment from their employer’, ‘more praise’ and ‘a greater sense of being valued’
As per my view for motivation we need following things.1. Good working environment2. good apprisal system and off course good pay structure in any company.
A person should be motivated to cope with different cercumstances.
to focus in the strength points and , clarify the goal and what is the benefits if achieved

The motivation factor is an individualized entity and people feel motivated by things that suit their requirement or attitude and the factors could be:
1.An Inspiring Mentor or Coach
2..Money
3.Social contentment.
4.Work Ambience.
5.Job Profile.
6.Job responsibility.
7.Growth Opportunity.
8.Training
9.Skill Development.
10.Above all a Positive attitude.
Interesting work and appreciation of the work done are the most important factors
Motivation depends of one's personal goals, needs & desires in life, as one works only if it is actually needed to achieve one's personal objectives and not because one wants to.
If all the objectives of a person's life is met, then you will not find him working and he looks for others ways to understand the purpose of his life. In other words, it depends on the individual's situation in life.
For eg :-
If a person is a social worker, then his/her personal goal would be to serve others which in turn gives him / her the mental satisfaction and happiness.
If a person is poor, his motivation would be to get money (either through the right way or the wrong way - depending on his circumstance and upbringing in life).
If a person is intelligent or a genius, then, he / she may want to share his thoughts to others, for the sake of enlightening the world around him, as this is the way he finds to keep himself busy. There is no point in keeping knowledge to oneself. If you don't share it, it will rot at a later stage, since it will be forgotten. By sharing knowledge, you gain a deeper understanding on the subject, as questions will arise if many people are involved who thinks from different angles.
If a person is looking for fame, then the motivation will be on that level.
If a person is employed, it could be job satisfaction, pleasant working environment, the opportunity to meet new people outside your personal life etc.....
These are few examples to understand motivation.
So you really cannot pinpoint what is the most important factor of motivation, since people keep changing with time which has a direct effect on one's personal goals and emotions.
In the olden times, it was to overcome poverty, but in today's world, people's thoughts and values have overpowered the true essence of this word.
The desire to do well and learning new things in life.
