The problem

 

We decided to write this article because of the sheer volume of interest identified into this topic.  It seems that a vast number of employees are perhaps not feeling as motivated as they would like to have felt at work.

 

 

The employer’s role

 

Often the employer’s attitude and the culture at work truly does not help employees to be adequately motivated.  Employers often do not allow as much freedom as their employees would have liked to unleash their real potential.  Even more often they fail to adequately recognize their contribution.  The fact is, that most employers will never be good in the eyes of their employees simply because of the significant effort needed and the absence of the right conditions for mutual interests to be well-aligned.  Some jobs simply do not offer these right conditions.  This means employees should not depend on the employer to remain motivated.  They should strive to become self-motivated.

 

 

The Solution: Employees taking motivation into their own hands

 

Employees should:

• Understand they must find a way to get self-motivated, since work is a big part of life and motivation is a big part of having a pleasant time at work.
• See their contribution as part of the final product or service provided to the client.
• Aim to do every task to the best of their abilities as a commitment to themselves and despite knowing that this will not be recognized by anyone.
• Not expect that their employers, colleagues or working conditions will change towards the better. If they do, that would be marvelous yet highly unlikely.
• Look for another job, or in general another income-earning source, if following this advice they still feel no improvement in their motivation levels.
