Motivation just had an upgrade to version 3.0.  Who knew words could be upgraded?   Dan Pink has written a book on the subject and Jonathan Fields has posted an informative interview with Pink (See Here).
 
Effort and purpose seems to be a major working theme to 3.0 version of motivation.  Motivation 1.0 is about staying alive.  Still a very good motivator, version 2.0 is about salary and 3.0 is about mastery, purpose, engagement and self-sufficiency.  
 
Motivation 3.0 is about “How to be a Working Artist”, a subject near and dear to my heart.  
 
Chase Jarvis has written a blog post on the topic: 
Create > Share > Sustain> this is a post on how to be a working artist.  
 
For myself I have been using the phrases: 
~ Create something new, daily 
~ Embrace a culture of sharing, daily 
~ Repeat, daily. 
 
For a sneak peek at my upcoming e-book (which is based on motivation 3.0 thinking), check out a past 5 part series of mine titled:
