"Inspiration Defined: a divine influence directly and immediately exerted upon the mind or soul."
Inspiration can lead to the creation of something truly great. Being
inspired allows us to change perspectives from a glass half empty to a glass
half full attitude. The ability to be inspired can lead to dreaming of bigger
and better things. The feeling of being unstoppable- knowing we can create and
change the world around us. These feelings fuel our minds to move forward with
our goals and dreams and is a state of mind that we need to consciously operate
from.
Inspiration is key to staying on track toward your success and is
the fuel that will power you through the lows that come your way more often
than you want. It is important to view our experiences never as ‘bad’, and to
use inspiration to change our thought processes to identify these experiences
as life lessons putting us back on track. Sometimes we need triggers/sources of
inspiration, and these identified sources of inspiration often reflect our
passions or hide some sort of personal importance. Being able to connect with
these identified inspirations every day will allow you to stay in perspective
and in a positive state of mind and drive your motivation to reach your goals.
Staying inspired is about creating an environment that enables you
to thrive and sets you up for success. Setting up your surroundings with
like-minded people who create positive experiences and allow you to thrive is
important. Read or listen to sources that inspire you and make time to ensure
what you are feeling is positive. Stay in this environment as often as possible
and make decisions from only this state of mind.
