Effective leaders motivate people from the inside—so people they lead contribute fully and thank the leader for giving the opportunity to work so much. Is someone thanking you for motivating them to work hard on your project not the holy grail of motivation?

People remember effective leaders their whole lives. If you had leaders and teachers who motivated you from the inside, you probably still remember them today and you wish you could thank them for inspiring such drive and fulfillment in your life.

You can learn to lead and inspire like them, to motivate people from the inside to contribute fully and completely and feel gratitude to you for motivating them. To want you to lead them again.
