1. Jeff Bezos
It is only natural that we start off with who else but the world's richest man even though the list is not in order of financial status.
Famed for his witty quotes and sayings that have served as doses of motivation to many, Jeff Bezos, according to Market Insider, was recently captured in his last annual letter offering life advice to his workers.
He had also vowed in the same circumstance to help his workers. This has no doubt boosted their resolve and motivated them.
2. Bill Gates
Co-founder of Microsoft, billionaire and philanthropist Bill Gates had in 2018 gifted a group of United States college graduates one of the most important books he has ever read, according to GeekWire.
Gates described the book titled Factfulness by Hans Rosling as “an indispensable guide to thinking clearly about the world.”
Coming from a billionaire, the receiving college graduates won't forget such kind gifts in a hurry.
3. Elon Musk
Tesla boss and second richest man in the world Elon Musk was recently captured in a weird looking car and odd hairstyle as he visited his workers at his Texas factory. Musk paid the visit to interact with the workers who make the electric cars.
Elated Musk lovers and workers captured the moment and flooded it on social media. What greater motivation to work that beats this?
