For the first article I am reading for this project, I chose to read “Motivation Is Not Really Required To Succeed” by Aytekin Tank. He talks about how how in situations like a building burning, we do not need any motivation to get out of the building. However, in low-stake scenarios, we tend to procrastinate and then think we need some extra outside force to motivate us to finally do something, which is not true. He then moves into talking about the two types of motivation, which are extrinsic and intrinsic. Extrinsic motivation is when there is an external reward, such as money, prompting you to complete your task. While intrinsic motivation comes from within for your own pleasure. He then moves on to discussing how to create reliable systems. These steps include, focusing on true priorities, understanding that motivation is optional, and learning how to delegate. These steps will help one to realize that motivation is not the key to getting things done, however how we plan things out and focus on them is.
In this video, Gary talks about how patience is the key to living good lives. When we are patient, life slows down and becomes much less stressful. This is important because when we are less stressed, we are able to get more work done and be more successful. I am choosing this video of Gary because I agree with what he is saying in the video and his words also taught me new things. Being successful is most peoples goal in life and he provides a way to reach success to us, through patience. Everyone can learn more about ways to be patient and better themselves. Through listening to these videos we can achieve becoming better people and better ourselves. The way he sends his message is in a very powerful tone, yet not overly intimidating. He message is strong and powerful and he matches that with the tone and power of his voice. To me, this makes him sound confident in what he is talking about and makes me trust that these are the ways to me bettering myself and becoming more successful. Gary also shares his back story in many of his videos, this shows viewers that he has been through terrible situations in his life, but have overcome them. This gives us the motivation that he needed to get through his situations.
