Motiv8...
What does the word motivation really mean, how does it impact our actions, and why did we call our company Motiv8?

As far back as Aristotle and Plato, there are many theories as to why some people are highly motivated to achieve their potential in sport and others drift aimlessly through their lives.  Simply stated, motivation is an inner drive that compels behaviour.

"it concerns us to know the purposes we seek in life, for then, like anchors aiming at a definite mark, we shall be more likely to attain what we want"
Aristotle

We believe that without this inner drive, that someone with talent in sport or business or education ... will never achieve their potential. Thus we feel that motivation is an essential corner stone to success.

Motivation can take many forms because we are all unique individuals with different dreams and goals. Muhammad Ali’s motivation is very different to Steve Jobs of Apple Computers, Fergal Quinn of Superquinn’s motivation is very different to Sean Quinn’s of Quinn group, DJ Careys motivation is completely different to Derval O Rourke, Father Peter McVerry’s motivation totally contrasts Michael Jordan's; yet they are all extremely motivated successful and driven people.

"We strive to find out what motivates you, what drives you. We believe that if you have a big enough why, that the how will look after itself. "
