How to Motivate your Family Members

Teaching children to be obedient is really important, however, when it comes to building a healthy culture, the goal is not perfect behavior. It's creating a team with shared values and beliefs, people that work together toward a common mission and purpose.

In this episode you will hear:

  • What it means to motivate a team or your family

  • The benefits of motivating, rather than micro-managing or controlling our family members

  • The 3 dos and 3 don’ts for how to motivate our people in a way that lasts.

Key Points:

  • Motivation is very, very different from manipulation.

  • Fear can be a good motivator in the short term, but it’s difficult for anyone to be successful when they’re driven by fear.

  • What you give attention to grows!

  • We inspire more by your example then your words.
