Great companies don`t hire skilled people and motivate them, they hire already motivated people and inspire them. People are either motivated or they are not. Unless you give motivated people something to believe in, something better than their job to work toward, they will motivate themselves to find a new job and you`ll be stuck with whoever`s left. Simon Sinek
About This Quote

Some people have a hard time getting motivated in a job. They try to look for a job with a higher salary, but when they can`t find one, they accept the one they have. This quote from the book “Made to Stick” by Chip and Dan Heath says that companies that succeed hire already motivated people and inspire them to be better. When you want people who are motivated to do their jobs, give them a reason to be motivated.
