Reflecting within yourself,
what motivates you to perform at an optimal level? Do you respond best to rewards, recognition, communication, expectations, or how would you describe what motivates you? Does the context of the situation alter your motivation? Consider various relationships in regards to interacting with a boss versus an intimate partner or loved one. How and why might your motivation shift?
I am actually a self motivator. I find satisfaction when i know that i have done a good job, reached a student, assured a parent... I am however further motivated when i work with like minded people. Highly motivated people help motivate me and i perform at a higher level.
ReplyDeleteSelf improvement motivates me most effectively. If I am able to learn a new skill or stretch beyond my comfort zone in some way, I am definitely willing to do extra work. It's exciting to expand my repertoire outside of the ordinary.
