Here are 5 ways to understand #money and motivation from author and speaker, Michael Angelo Caruso. #work

1. Money doesn't motivate everyone.
And that's okay. In fact, money doesn't motivate MOST people.

2. Smart people are more likely to make money.
But most people don't bother to get smart.Only about 35% of America adults have a college degree. By the way, it's not your grades or even the degree that helps one generate income. The contacts you make in higher ed almost always pay a dividend in terms of future opportunities.

3. Most folks DECLINE opportunities to earn more.
You can most likely double your income by working twice as many hours. Want to?

You can be paid more money to do roughly the same job, if you move to Alaska. Want to do that?

4. Be a good person and money will come.
Get your core values together. Being a good person who values kindness, service, integrity and honesty will help you attract the kinds of employers and people who will value you as a person.

5. The free market economy defines money.
Many workers feel they are underpaid. If that's true--and making more money is super important to you-- you should leave your job immediately, providing you can find a company that will pay you more.
