Motivation; The Biggest Lie ever Told!

I know the title sounds non-conformist to the millions of blogs, article, books, quotes, and seminars. I am sure this blog will fire back at me fiercely.

But the truth I tell you, motivation is the graveyard of your dreams and ambition. Motivation is like sugar in the blood, once taken, an elevated boost of energy will occur yet after a little time, a drawback will lower your stamina way below the state you were in, prior consuming sugar.

So what's the replacement, what's the solution?

For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive. 2 Peter 5-7

So it's about Faith... Do you believe in your profession, your career your company?

So it's about Goodness... are you a good man, a good woman, who inspires trust and respect in the workplace?

So it's about knowledge... how much time do you spend on your self-improvement, in reading about relevant topics to your field?

So it's about Self- Control... are you well focused and do you have a problem-solving mindset? Do you control your emotions and constantly think about the bigger picture?

So it's about Perseverance... Do you need motivation or you are able to do the same thing over and over again without giving up?

So it's about Godliness... Do you long for perfection? Do you always search to become the perfect company or product or service?

So it's about Mutual Affection... Are you Customer Centric? Do you see your clients as profits or human being with goals and aspirations? Do you treat your workforce well and with respect?

So it's about LOVE... Love is the biggest motivation of all... and it only comes from faith, goodness, knowledge, self-control, perseverance, godliness and mutual affection.
