Today is the Day.... and repeat....

Today is the day.... How many days does one start that way end up overworked, over stressed and under appreciated?  Well, I did feel that way quite a bit through some of the positions I have held in the past.  Not anymore though!  I chose to help people get to where they want to go and that goal going to be my continued focus from here on out.  What I realized, as a manager, is that people do care about what they are doing but, they put forth what they get back from that same job the are doing.  A person cannot fully put 110% if they do not see 120% back!  Its called investment.  There isn't single person out in the world that wants to just put 110% into something and get 100% back.  That's almost as bad a slavery, with a touch of ownership to a cubicle.  I fully and wholeheartedly feel that't the truest form of effort is when a person sees the impact they make and pushes their self to go the extra mile to put their own mark on it, feeling accomplished in the task at hand. If fact something that Gary Vee said, which if you've never ever heard him before you should Google him right now before you go any further.... I will wait....       Anyway, he says if you can get an employee to care about your business 7-8 out of 10 you need to do whatever it takes to keep that person. Most people will be a 4-6 range out of 10 and that's okay, you can work with that.

Motivation is something to cherish and not burn up!  Each of us take one day after another but, when we are able to see the differences we make in life, we can strive for more differences harder or back away. Then in the end its what we have done that makes us, us.

Final words: Write your story, make it something that defines your name in your book.  You will be surprised how many people can relate to it, which then effects their lives for the better!
