Quotes

“When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life.  When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up.  I wrote down ‘happy’.  They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.”
– John Lennon

Living Without Regret – Two Valuable Life Lessons

A Wise Women’s Legacy

When I was a young girl my grandmother, who was in her late 80s at that stage, taught me an important life lesson.  She told me that she was ready for God to take her whenever he was ready, because she’d had a full life.

She then talked about various experiences in her life which she cherished, including growing up in a large family, being part of musical gatherings and performances, amazing historical changes (she lived from 1893-1993), practical jokes with friends and family, [Read more…]

The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us

Health Pursuit Blog

In today’s animated video, Dan Pink speaks about the truth behind what really motivates us to perform better, at home and in the work place.

Here are three aspects he discusses:

  1. A couple of US studies which call into question that:
    1. If you reward something your get more of the behaviour you want, and
    2. If you punish something you get less of it.
  2. 3 essential motivation factors which lead to better performance and personal satisfaction.
  3. How problems start to arise when the profit motive becomes unhinged from the purpose motive

In order to successfully achieve your goals, dreams and aspirations, it is essential that you are aligned with what really motivates you.  If not you’ll struggle to achieve your goals.

Needs some assistance to create goals which really motivate you?  To empower you to transform your results and achieve greater success?  If so,  then I’d love to help you.  Please contact me now by clicking here so we can discuss options for achieve your goals.
