Motivators

It might sound odd, but money is not the root of great motivation. We all share a desire to get better and better at something that matters. Whether you’re a great artist, athlete, software developer, or sales professional, you need room to grow. The best way to tap into intrinsic motivation, according to author Daniel Pink, is to take the issue of money off the table and put the focus on the work itself: “The more prominent salary, perks, and benefits are in someone’s work life, the more they can inhibit creativity and unravel performance.”
