One of the most common questions I’m asked is “how do you have so much energy?” It gives me energy! That is the secret to where I get all of my energy. If you want everyone else to be passionate, committed, dedicated, and motivated, you go first! On one airline alone, I have 12 million frequent flyer miles. You go first!

With this new book, Steve shows us how to find passion and renewed energy through our work. One of the foremost authorities on career guidance, my good friend Dr. Steven Berglas has a new book out, Stay Hungry and Kick Burnout in the Butt. I’m excited about this topic, so I interviewed him recently.

Motivational strategies that are effective in one culture may actually be offensive in another culture. Leaders who can effectively understand, appreciate, and motivate colleagues in multiple cultures will become an increasingly valued resource in the future. Appreciating Cultural Diversity. It is a world of “co-opitition.”

Despite making a powerful initial impression, the entrepreneur lacked motivation and consistently missed important business commitments. If you believe, as I do, that it’s our own behavior that holds us back from achieving as much as we can, then one of the larger culprits is the time and energy we waste being angry.

Our motivation is marginal. If your motivation for a task or goal is in any way compromised—because you lack the skill, or don’t take the task seriously, or think what you’ve done so far is good enough—don’t take it on. This is the perilous moment when we start to settle for “good enough.”. Why do we settle for “good enough”?

The answer is rather simple: When a goal is designated, it tends to become a fixation for highly motivated people. Ask yourself, “What goals are consuming my time and energy?” Yet why do many of the leaders in talent management (and to be fair, in other areas of business, as well) so often fail to get it?

Review your goals and ask: 'What goals are consuming my time and energy and the company's resources?' You tend to attribute good results to your own motivation and ability and tend to attribute poor results to environmental factors, bad luck, or random chance. The solution is simple, but not easy.
