How to motivate a person to work?

[WHENSandozCOME]

Paying what the person deserves is the best motivation and everyone should know that.

I think acknowledgement is the best motivation.  It makes me feel motivated and by that I also make sure to perform better.

It is very important to know the people you are working with are motivated enough so as to help them grow and develop as a better human being.

If it's a teenager, the problem could be that they've had their needs taken care of their entire lives and don't realize that things will change when time comes to leave home. Painting a clear picture of what their setting themselves up for could help.

First if you want to motivate a person to work you must gain her/his trust and respect. Because if the person your going to motivate and he do not trust you and respect you he/she is reluctant to cooperate and will not  listen what you want to say to just improve his/her working skills. because "respect begets respect"......

If a person is not motivated enough, then they will not feel good about themselves and about their lives.

Encouragement, Respect, Trust and Recognition. Motivate a person by encouraging him to do something, give him the trust that he can really do the tasks and for a job well done give him the recognition. Even words of congratulations can be enough motivate a person but rewards can do better than that.

I totally think that person needs appreciation and has to see that workgiver is really trusting him

The best motivation to anyone is giving them the money and a little extra after their project is completed as a surprise.

Tell people exactly what you want them to do. Motivation is all about getting people to take action, so don’t be vague. Avoid generalities like, “I want everyone to do their best.” Say, instead, “I need you to come in over the weekend so we can get this project done on time.”

Motivation is very important to work hard and give your best all the time. if there is no one motivating you or acknowledging your work then you will feel low.

What do you think?Motivate is really motives our mind.Another thing, when you’re inspiring people, you’re not telling them exactly what to do or giving them precise directions. You’re empowering them to be their best, trusting that they will then do the right thing. And the right thing they do may not be what you were expecting; it may be something beyond your wildest expectations.

Motivating people in the work place involves a balance between rewards and punishments. A supervisor or a manager should know when to give the carrot or enforce the stick at the right time in the right amount. I believe a person is motivated to work if there is a goal and an appropriate reward. That could ba a tangible reward like money, or a promotion, even acknowledgement of a ranked position is enough. A right kind of goal and a certain novelty so people won't be stuck in a rut

Insentive works best. And be kind to your co-worker, because good vibe is important. Workplace should be comfortable and co-worker should be good to each other, no backstabbing friends.

[RuthaRubenstein]

If you are passionate about something then that is the motivation for you. No one else can motivate you than yourself.

[cleygaux]

It depends on a person if his too lazy to work even if thousands of motivations you share with them they will not work because of laziness only one can motivate a person to work its himself he must start to realize that working hard can changed their lives and become successful in the future. 

[Lemayilleur]

there are different types of motivation, motivation for money, motivation and the desire to become the best, and motivation is just to fill your free time. But the most correct motivation is to want to become a professional in your business

[MatrixJolly]

Motivate everyone who works with you as it is important and helps them grow.

First motivation is proper compensation. Hard work should be payed appropriately.
Next, acknowledgement of one's success. Employees tends to work hard when their work is appreciated by their superiors. Appraisals would suffice.
Last, challenge them. When you learn everyday you have a developing career and this wouldn't happen if you keep on doing the same routinary job everyday.
