Morning Motivator - Passion Drives Results

"The more intensely we feel about an idea or a goal, the more assuredly the idea, buried deep in our subconscious, will direct us along the path to its fulfillment."
- Earl Nightingale

If I were to tell you that I am CONFIDENT in a product or service - how would you feel? Now, if I told you I was PASSIONATE about a product or service - how might that change your thoughts?

In discussions with business LEADERS, young and old, I have found that the ones that are WORKING with a fevered passion are much more SUCCESSFUL. Sounds like a "Well Duh!" comment doesn't it? Sure. More interesting is the volume of business professionals that are "JUST WORKING."

Many are CONFIDENT in their company, their solution, their team, but if it came down to making a SACRIFICE of time, money, energy, political position - are these the people that would STAND UP for their company/team/product/service or just look out for "NUMBER ONE?"

2 DEGREE SUCCESS STEP:
I don't want people to get the wrong impression that I am SUGGESTING people that "just work" and fulfill their role are LESSER employees. I am not.

What I am presenting for CONSIDERATION is the worth and value of the individual that will "treat it like their own." Make no mistake, MOST people are not that passionate about what they do - frankly, many aren't passionate about much more than their favorite football team - which is cause for consideration.

If you have the ability to FEED someone's PASSION - shouldn't you? When you seek to MOTIVATE - would understanding and driving their PASSIONS be more effective?

If you want to see evidence of this CAUSE and EFFECT, find someone that has intense PASSION for a cause and you will find that GREAT ADVANCES that have been made as a result.

As LEADERS, we have the ability to DRIVE huge results from our supporters... once we know HOW they DRIVE themselves.

Cheers,
Zach
