why it’s so Important…, I believe without it,
one can never lead, one can never motivate others
to be the best they can be.
Motivation is critical for the workplace as well as for our everyday life.
Any leader knows that leading by example is an effective way to motivate. A leader that does this is normally treated with respect and fairness.
One part of the importance of motivation involves, being self-motivated. Leaders that are self-motivated and disciplined often can lead by example with ease. They understand what their goals are, what needs to be accomplished and how to get there. This is why I asked the question Motivated, are you?
Being self-motivated doesn’t always come naturally to everyone. Even the best, self-motivated leaders need a jump start from time to time, due to the stresses of life.
A good friend of mine told me some time ago,
“we are like diamonds, the more pressure that’s applied, the more brilliant we become, the more brilliant we will shine”.
Working on goal setting skills in conjunction with positive thinking equals improved self-motivation.
Simultaneously, we must visualize that success which also gives us the self-confidence to move forward until we accomplish what we set out to do. Again, the question is about being Motivated, are you?
Finally, I want to say “when it comes to the workplace”, it wouldn’t hurt if a company would do little things like,
- Give your employees small things
- like pencils,
- pens,
- even coffee mugs. All with your companies logo on them.
- Included in that could be polo shirts,
- hats, and jackets.
Your employees and the company would stand out. And your employees would have a greater appreciation for themselves and the company, (the workplace).
This post is just a little food for thought about being motivated. I hope it has a positive impact on you as a person or company.
