A lot of our commercial construction in NC is done close to our Lake Norman home, but often times we find ourselves far up or down the east coast. Being away from family and home can encourage a lack of motivation.
Motivation and productivity go hand in hand; when I feel energetic my work gets done faster and more efficiently. I’ve never been a big fan of energy drinks, but I can see why so many people drink them.
Friends and co-workers often ask me how can get motivated, there is a unique answer for that question depending on who you are. Everyone is unique and motivated in their own way:
- Money has always been a huge motivator
- Family is also a top motivator
- Recognition is a motivator
- Anger can be a motivator for some people
Whatever motivates you is what is important. Recognize and utilize the energy to be as productive as possible and you will always feel gratified at the end of the day.
