Motivating The Low Achieving Young Adult

    Young adults, with few exceptions, are motivated.  It may not be the sort of motivation their parents want to see ­ to be ambitious, to work harder, to achieve more, to be self­starters ­ but they are certainly motivated to do what they want (pleasure) and avoid what they don't want (work).  Fro...
