Recently, readMr. Cui Huang's "Being the CEO of Your Own Life: Management Skills Everyone Needs".There are many points in the book that have touched me, and I will share them with you in different topics
Sharing theme: Motivation is a "future" that can be seen and touched by the other party.
Teacher Cui Huang shared in the book: ".What we want to be conscious and active, so that we don't have to "ask", the other party can rely on their own inner drive to do thisIn this way, we can meet our expectations, or exceed our expectations. But,Once we "ask" the other party to "take the initiative", then no matter whether he does it or not, it will not meet our "requirements".
We are very accustomed to motivating each other according to our own "ideas" and "requirements", but often because we set the "lower limit" early on, no matter how hard the other party tries, it seems that it is difficult to meet our predetermined standards. WhileOnly when we abandon this preset "lower limit" can we motivate the other party to continue to "touch the height" and finally meet our expectations.
It's really amazing to motivate this thing. Our most common practice is:Given standards, set rules, and motivate everyone to keep working "up" through "rules and regulations".
And often, the real motivation is not. Especially in stimulating children's internal drive, I have a deep experience.
I think:Motivation is not to let people get the "sweetness" in front of them, but to give him a "future" that he can see and touch.
Let's make a point. First, it is not an immediate benefit; Second, the real visible and tangible target. In other words, everything that is ethereal, invisible, untouchable, and inaccessible does not motivate people's internal drive.
Since last year, my child and I have made an important decision together. He "jumped" from traditional painting to digital painting.
A friend told me that the child has already passed the highest level of sketching level 9 and has won many awards, and suddenly changed tracks, so won't the previous efforts be in vain?
I thought it through with my children. Why did you make this decision? That's because we see more possibilities in the future.
In the first few classes of digital painting, the children walked into the classroom with curiosity about electronic products and various drawing apps.
He will be curious: an iPad and a capacitive pen can create a classic character of Glory of Kings? How exactly is this done? How does a painting become CG and how does it become a variety of products?
He had a bunch of curiosities, a bunch of questions.
At that moment, I didn't set goals and demands for him like I did in other subjects, and I didn't give him a "material reward" for what he did or won a competition.
But I told him,What can you "transform" into the work you create, and what can you "get" from it?
Therefore, in the process of creation, under the leadership of the teacher, he found that digital painting works can be modeled to create a lot of peripheral products, and can also be used for commercial illustration submission......
That's all,He discovered "business opportunities" and "infinite possibilities". At the same time,It also built a new way of thinking for him.
He discovered that "pocket money" is no longer "paid" or rewarded to him by his parents on a regular basis, but can be "obtained" by himself through his own efforts. All of a sudden,The child's thinking mode is upgraded, his horizons are broadened, and he is more willing to take the initiative to discover and create.
Because,The tangible and visible goal gave him the consciousness and motivation to act.
In our lives and work, similar situations abound. I believe that we can also be inspired by children's cases on how to effectively motivate employees to take the initiative in their work.
Teacher Fan Deng once said: When you can deal with more than 90% of the problems with your children, the problems in life and work are not problems.
This is a good example of what I have seen in children to motivate "autonomy" and stimulate internal drive.
If all aspects of children's learning and employees' work can be applied by analogy, I believe that parents and entrepreneurs will no longer have to think hard about how to stimulate initiative and enthusiasm. "Twisted melons are not sweet".The best motivation is self-motivation and self-achievement.
To motivate "in place", we need to do the following:
1.[Discover the deep-seated needs]:Motivation cannot always be "brushed aside" through immediate material and spiritual rewards, and it is important to see long-term tangible goals. Therefore, we need to recognize the present moment and be good at discovering, especially the deep-seated needs of each person's heart. We can be like "Puppy Money", we can establish a "dream album" and a "dream piggy bank" to visualize the deep-seated needs of our hearts and stimulate our own self-awareness.
2.[Activate Inner Drive]:Flip through the "Dream Album" every day to see what you can and have the ability to do, and build self-confidence for yourself. And the point here is to transform "dreams" into "practical actions", without action, everything is a floating cloud. And what motivates you to act must be that you see the value of doing it. So, from now on, give every thing in your "Dream Album" a "clear price".
3.[Timely Incentive Cashing]:Only when the "incentive cash" is obtained in a real and timely manner can the utility of the incentive be revealed, and the inner driving force of the person can be truly stimulated. Just like your paintings, you can monetize your sweet potatoes and get more praise and recognition, which is a kind of positive motivational feedback that will continue to strengthen your behavior. So that's why, when you really "do" and "achieve", you should reward yourself well. Paste this "cash list" everywhere in the room, let yourself feel the "glory" of the moment, and form a virtuous circle of positive behavior.
How do you apply "incentives"? Let's talk about how to effectively stimulate the internal motivation of the high-quality author list
