Motivation is the driving force of success. It’s what gets you out of bed in the morning and keeps you going until bedtime. Motivated employees are also more productive, creative, and work with greater efficiency. The ability to motivate oneself is not a natural trait; it needs to be cultivated over time with practice and discipline.
