Let’s get moving
Getting motivated and staying motivated can be an issue. Some people just do not want to get moving. Some people, you don’t want to get moving. Once moving they can’t stop. What is their secret. Is it Jesus, vitamins, drugs, or do they just have the right stuff.
The stuff that makes you a good worker and conscientious human being. Some people are just fun to be around which can be a great motivator. Great Leaders are a good example. The right leader of a country can excite and motivate millions of people to create change in their world.
Most businesses are looking for motivated people that will spring their business forward in an energetic fashion. Trying to run a delivery business with a cornucopia of slugs is probably not going to work very efficiently.
You need motivated creatures that will work quickly with the passion that creates a feeling of excitement and success. That is what makes situations worth being involved in. The feeling that this whole operation is worth doing and is heading in the right direction. That creates motivation.
Motivational interviewing and training could help with this process. The concept that you could create the scenario you want, is possible. The right team assembled for the job at hand is a well worn concept that works very well in the right circumstances. The U.S. Navy Seal Teams are the perfect example. These people are highly motivated to conquer the situation at hand, no matter the conditions or the level of adversity. If we could all take on projects, or tasks, like the Seal Team there would be a lot of success in our lives, and the world. What is the motivational direction that these people possess?
Jesus, drugs, vitamins? I believe it is the fact that these people want to do what they are doing. It’s easy to do what you want to do. We all need and want to eat so cooking, for some people, is easy and fun to do. Other people will pay other people to cook their food. Either way the task at hand is getting done. The best part is this situation feeds off of the other, which in turn, will create motivation, both ways and the other.
The definition of motivation is:
mo·ti·va·tion
/ˌmōdəˈvāSH(ə)n/
Learn to pronounce
noun
the reason or reasons one has for acting or behaving in a particular way.
“escape can be a strong motivation for travel”
Is the definition the way to obtain the desired result that you wish to achieve. I am motivated to motivate you. Motivational interviewing training is a goal or achievement that someone else wants someone else to achieve. This makes sense, you just have to read it twice. Maybe this is the difficulty with motivating people and yourself. It is not your idea to begin with, so you are not that interested in it. This is why we get paid to go to work.
Most people do not get motivated by the thought of picking up other people’s unwanted, discarded trash and putting it in a truck, all day long, in all kinds of weather. It just does not seem like something I want to get all excited about. However if my unwanted, discarded trash is piling up out front of my house. I will get motivated to do something about it. That motivation will involve, getting other people motivated, to achieve the desired effect I wish to achieve. So do you see how all this really works. Let’s get motivated to motivate someone else. No wonder nobody wants to get motivated.
