Topic: Employee Motivation
Direction refers to the path along which people engage their effort. People have choices about
where they put their effort; they have a sense of what they are trying to achieve and at what
level of quality, quantity, and so forth. In other words, direction refers to the fact that
motivation is goal-directed, not random.

XXXVIII.
Niin sai Leycester jäädä yksin oman huiman päänsä ohjattavaksi, sillä
aikaa kun vaatturit ja verhoilijat hyörivät kuumeisesti juhlapäivän
valmistelupuuhissa.
Hän ei olisi voinut sanoa, minkä vuoksi hän tuli Carlyoniin. Hän ei
edes tietänyt sen pienen kylän nimeä, johon hän oli joutunut. Hänen
kauniilla kasvoillaan oli vakava ja väsynyt ilme, kun hän astui
majataloon ja vaipui penkille, jossa monet miespolvet Carlyonin
kalastajia ja monet rannikkomatkailijat olivat istuneet.
»Kyllä, sir», vastasi eräs miehistä; »mutta ilmeisesti heillä oli riitaa ja
—»
Taloon ei ollut pitkä matka, mutta ennenkuin hän ehti sinne, näki
Leycester hennon, tyttömäisen olennon tulevan häntä vastaan maantiellä.
Tulija oli Stella. Nuorukainen pysähtyi epäröiden, mutta sillä hetkellä
ei Stella ajatellut mitään, ei edes häntäkään. Empimättä hän tuli
Leycesteriä vastaan, kasvot kalpeina, kädet ojossa.
»Leycester! Missä hän on?»
»Vie minut hänen luokseen!» hän vaikeroi. »Vie minut sinne! Voi
poika-raukkaa, poika-raukkaa!»
»Älä itke, Stella. Jos olisin elänyt, niin hän — hän olisi pitänyt sinua
sidottuna. Nyt kuolen —» Hänen äänensä aleni kuulumattomaksi, ja
hänen silmänsä sulkeutuivat; mutta he näkivät hänen huuliensa
liikkuvan, ja kun Stella kumartui hänen puoleensa, kuuli hän sanat:
»Antakaa anteeksi, anteeksi!»
*****

Vitkastelematta vaati Leycester Stellan omakseen; ja muutamien
viikkojen kuluttua, mikä aika oli odotettava Frankin kuoleman johdosta,
vihittiin heidät hiljaisesti Carlyonin pienessä kirkossa, jossa Stellan olisi
pitänyt vannoa uskollisuutta Jasper Adelstonelle.
