Fear is the motivator moat exploited by advertisers and we should be wary that it is not being used as 'sucker bait' by creating fear that we didn't have before, or one that doesn't need much encouragement.

It is the motivator of motivators when it incites us to self.saerirtce, enthusiasm and hatred of the things we should hate. It is the emollient for all human relations and represents the hope of humanity, the one that shines from the eyes of parents as they watch their sleeping child; or of the young couple as they make their personal commitments to each other; and those who devote themselves to the service of others. On the positive side, there is plenty that we should hate when it is directed against the reasons why people hate people. There is intolerance, bigotry, injustice, oppression and a host of other things which we should hate, because it implies a love of their opposites. The civil rights movement is motivated by the hatred of injustice. and Amnesty International by a hatred of oppression end man's iMynanity to man. Hatred - now there's a much misunderstood motivator.

This is when we rind happiness in what we are doing, when we are filled with excitement about a project, a plan, or event. With enthusiasm, we bubble and bounce with energy and few things seem impossible to us. Here is why people do things; and it's also the reason why we don't do things, and wonder why we don't, Unless one of these motivators is present, the chances, are that you are not going to :10 {Touch about that idea that seems so good, but remains: in im . The Ctrat of these motivators is fear, which accounts for so much of our activities - the fear of poverty, fear of the law, fear of appearing ridiculous, fear of ostraciam and being socially unacceptable, fear of being alone, fear of death, and so on, Only these ancient motivators will cause us to strike out on our own. Our intelligence may tell us that we should do this or that, but nothing much is going to happen until we feel strongly enough to take action about it. You will notice that all these motivators are emotional and, while there are many things that we are called upon to do because of job requirements or other obligations, we do these ,___ _ ----- _.
