Hello Dr, I’m a bit concerned at the role ‘motivation speakers’ play in the decisions many entrepreneurs make especially whilst starting out. From experience, sometimes, the key to your business might actually be to stop something pivot rather than stay on a particular lane and keep “aspiring and desiring” 😆. ‘Cos when you’re “pumped” and “fired up” at certain public speaking events, you might run your business more on emotions than logic. If you can relate with this, is it something entrepreneurs should actually look out for? No discredit to motivational speaker though.

Sir Toby, great to read from you. Your wonderful well coined words say more.

With all honesty, as the saying goes: everyone, everything have its place in this world we live in.

I personally mostly bring back my momentum by listening to motivational speakers. I will say, Entrepreneurs should be very INTENTIONAL in every action taken both for life and for business.  Listening to a motivational speaker doesn't help you solve the hard problems before you. They MOTIVATE you to hold on, think harder, ask if need be and keep pushing upward. 

Entrepreneurs, don't allow everyone be your cup of tea. As you pipe up or down you client search, so should you pipe down the motivations you listen to daily.
