The WUE Managing My Team Area:
Is a focus of the amount of time and energy you're currently putting into developing your ability to effectively lead and inspire others.
It's a focus on what you can do to get your team to
want to take positive action.
(There are five Wake Up Eager
focus areas: Managing My Mind,
Body, Spirit, Career and Team.
These statements represent high work motivation on the 22 Secrets Wake Up Eager Quiz. Click each link for development resources for that Secret:
- I feel confident in my professional skills and often feel like an expert in my field.
- I actively participate in a minimum of 40 hours of training in my field.
- I read at least 6 books a year about my field and industry.
- I attend at least one organization or association meeting, in my field, every quarter.

"All the top achievers I know in life are life-long learners...
looking for new skills, insights and ideas.
If they're not learning, they're not growing...not moving."
---Dennis Waitley

When you are confident in your skills as a leader (and in your field) you are much more likely to be and feel motivated and inspired about your work.
And when YOU are inspired, you can then inspire and positively influence others.
Finding and keeping strong work motivation the Wake Up Eager Way is by increasing your drive and focus on self improvement.
Learning new skills, talking to people in other companies and feeling confident in your field is energizing.
Feeling like you are the Master or Mistress of your Universe can be invigorating.
So, why do so many of us put off our skill-building? Some common reasons I know I've faced in the past include:
- Being too busy
- Finding most development programs boring
- Not seeing self development as a high priority
Sometimes, procrastination just sets in. Sometimes I'd rather go home my favorite show than go to an association event in the evening.
If You Rated Your Self Low Here...
If you rated yourself low in the 'Managing My Team' (work motivation and inspiration) Area (from the Wake Up Eager Quiz) - symptoms may include:
- You've lost interest and momentum in advancing your career.
- You may be unclear about your work roles and responsibilities right now.
- You may be procrastinating more than usual at work.
- You don't have a strong network of contacts outside of work.
- You shy away from new assignments and stepping outside your comfort zone.
"A winner is someone who recognizes God-given talents,
works his tail off to develop them into skills,
and uses these skills to accomplish his goals."
---Larry Bird
