Motivation

What is motivation? Can we classify this word as one of the value that one has? I guess yes, cause the belief statement that differ from person to person.
Some people get motivated when they get attention.
Some people get motivated when they get recognition.
Some people get motivated when they get monetary benefits.
Some people get motivated when praised.
& Some with all of the above!


This all comes with the kind of work we do. This is all obvious. But now a days 'motivation' is becoming a driving factor for everyone, and I am not saying that there is anything wrong about it. My opinion is that- one has to focus on 'quality work' for the assignment that he is responsible/ accountable for, rest of the things are always taken care of. One need not depend on someone to motivate oneself but make others depended upon you! Thats where you build strong relationship with people. This also gives one power at times, and as said- With great power comes great responsibility (courtesy- Spiderman). Once you have developed the standard, you will need to ensure to maintain the standard.


You need to motivate yourself, by patting your own back for all the good work you did. Thank the team members who supported you to complete the assignment. And, raise your bar and keep high standards!

A Candle Of Light


Hope is a candle of light. Until to fill the free form for a lottery in some mall you can't hope for a free gift! So, fill it and you can at-least hope that you will get it.

Lot of people conclude that 'To hope, doesn't matter, but you need to be lucky enough to get what you hope for'. Its crap. It no luck factor. Even if we talked about the above example- its someone who filled the form, hoped and believed that he will win the lottery and he got it!

Hope and believe these two non-tangible things go hand in hand. So, you need to believe in things that you hope for and then what ever you will ask fo
r is what you will get. So whenever you are in tight situation you need to say- 'I will win' and believe in your own words instead of saying and believing 'Will I win?' Remove this question-mark from your life and make it simple :)
