Harness and Create Motivational Forces
To learn and evolve to a "New Best Level" try an "Open
Communications" structure. You and I, the people we interact
with, and all things stimulate unique motivational forces (a
feeling) in our being. In some cases the motivational forces are
stronger. However, before motivation comes the first step,
acceptance. Accept yourself and others to best serve humanity.
Acceptance is the mind of all enablers. It must be acknowledged
and received to go forward. Whether the deed is good or bad you
and I must first accept the condition in order to take a "spirit
enhancing action" to generate a "spirit enhancing result". I
speak, attend, and network at events, meetings, and conferences.
When observing someone express their expertise, opinions,
beliefs, and knowledge first accept the person involved, place
in time, and location. Make certain it is a safe place to be.
Those who:
Accept the agenda
Accept the networking
Accept the speaker
Accept there is an option for products and/or services
Accept there are activities
will be equipped to do what is best. Go in with a positive
mindset, "I'm motivated to make the most of this experience" or
"I can raise my level of play". Consider simply trying to be
"one of the best". Be a part of the dynamics, absorb, and learn
to identify, implement, or modify a "stimulating enhancer" or
"solidifier". Try this while viewing the agenda, networking,
connecting with the speaker, considering options and activities
to see you being taken to a "new best level". Bring it to your
daily life. Being able to identify the "stimulating enhancers"
and "solidifiers" will make a contributing effect to performing
at a "New Best Level".
Now, prepare to experience the second step, motivational forces.
When you meet someone, attend an event, view art, read a book,
or play a sport many motivational forces rapidly come to mind.
Some might be, good to see you, valuable, I like the setup,
knowledgeable, motivational, actionable, useful, beautiful,
helpful, inspiring, uplifting, magnificent style and technique,
awesome play, an unyielding presence, my intuition is telling me
something, nice home, cool car, etc. These are all motivational
forces to experience and to receive more other steps are
necessary.
Step three, is being supportive/hospitable. In doing business
each decides, "Is this individual supportive/hospitable"? Be
supportive/hospitable to grow a trustworthy relationship.
Today, there is research available and more being pursued. For
research to make sense, it must be turned into step four,
independent research, for a specific purpose. Sure, research
shows most people remember what is seen and written. However, if
driving a car an audio cd is more advantageous. Will someone
switch to wanting to see and read a book while driving? Of
course not!
Once your independent research is completed, a shared/known
strategy, step five, is essential. Imagine being at work and a
team colleague requests an
e-mail to be sent to the client with
the project outline and schedule. Naturally, this sharing
creates a common ground for the project team and client.
However, if a team member or client does not comprehend the
known strategy then only the process of gathering and sending an
e-mail is accomplished. I do not know of anyone who is paid to
send e-mails. However, if comprehension of the known strategy is
shared and tweaked as necessary, then it is much more valuable.
Albert Einstein said, "The only thing of real value is your
intuition". I would like to add "each must make everyone and
everything else valuable."
Step six is feedback/imagination. Many organizations have a
solid dividing line regarding feedback and imagination. If in
one, there is need for significant improvement. Observe
professional athletes and coaches. They are very encouraging
before practice, during practice and when fans are watching the
game. These individuals are paid millions yet they receive more
feedback than most workers and are told to use their
imagination. Allow and encourage others to give courteous
feedback and use their imagination to generate more prospects,
more customers, more referrals, and more business. Try closing
the feedback/imagination loop every time. For example, you have
been working diligently on a project and notice a package in
your chair. You open it and it's an award with a letter of
congratulations stating you will receive $1,000 as a bonus in
the next pay period. It would be a good idea to give feedback to
the award sender by simply letting them know, "Thanks [name],
for recognizing my work". This will stir their imagination.
Feedback/imagination is essential for relationship growth.
Step seven, knowledge, is the foundation. It might be discovered
purely on one's own, during a focus group, or the teachings of
an author's book. Keep in mind acceptance, motivation, being
supportive/hospitable, independent research, shared/known
strategy, and feedback/imagination enable knowledge.
Acceptance and motivational forces enable steps three through
seven. Motivational forces occur daily and create a bond known
as spirit. Being able to harness and take "spirit enhancing
actions" to generate "spirit enhancing results" brings more
motivation, more winning, and more growth. My dad told it best,
"simplify", "simplify", "simplify", "simplify". An "Open
Communications" structure can take your organization to a "New
Best Level". Validate the usefulness of the "Open
Communications" structure in your organization.
