Hey, let them be inspired, even if it is propaganda. If there is anything to be done, is to help people differentiate speech that motivates versus a speech from a motivational speaker. For example, Steve Jobs told his story and it motivated a whole lot of people. I'm sure many people in this audience felt an jolt of inspiration when they watched that address. However, when you finish watching a speech and you are told that this is only a glimpse of what is possible, and the rest is available in a 6 weeks program that will help you achieve your full potential... Now that's a different story. In a past life, I spent each Tuesday watching a "successful" business man tell me that I can do it too, all I had to do was buy their book. One day, one of the most famous of them, who was allegedly a millionaire and the most popular Survivor in the tv show Survivor, came to present. His microphone was left on while he was backstage... The host was shouting as hard as he could to drown the sound of the celebrity asking his wife how much they made from ticket sales. Then he borrowed $15 from her for gas. Contrast that with me listening to steve jobs speech and I felt motivated to keep working on my tiny javascript project. I haven't invented a new iphone, but at least it pushed me to work harder and make a career out it, lifting a family of 7 out of poverty. Yes, their are many more variable, but I certainly felt inspired listening.
