Motivation Exercise

Motivation exercise

Work through the factors below, and rate each one in terms of how important they are to you. We would recommend you use a scale of 1 – 4 (1 being low, 4 being high). It is important to also spend time considering your current satisfaction level for each factor. Use the same scale to record your thoughts, and note down any comments related to the rating you have given the factor for current satisfaction. It is important to record at this stage any thoughts on how you could increase the current satisfaction level if you have recorded a low score here, and it has a high score for importance.

"Joanne was amazing, she really engaged the group and I left the course feeling much 'lighter' than when I went in. I was really suffering with feeling run down but this course really helped and gave me a new perspective of looking at things and coping with the constant strain of the job", "I feel much happier in myself, I feel a little weight has been lifted since attending this course. It has given me some great insight into preventing this re occurring and knowing the signs so I can start looking after myself first. Therefore this will make me a better leader to support my team and feel happier in my own health and well being"
