Do you ever find yourself feeling uninspired? Do you always long for that surge of motivation to push you forward? Why not become your own inspiration?
Often, we associate inspiration with something external, a force that magically ignites our passion. But anything beyond our control is fleeting. The best and lasting inspiration still comes from within, from our own actions and efforts. As they say, inspiration comes from perspiration. It is born from the sweat of our hard work.
Notice that when we sit idle or wait passively, the drive to take the next step seems elusive. But when we make the conscious decision to take action and we get the ball rolling, inspiration comes alive. We start to feel that burning desire to go further and we end up doing more and achieving more.
It is in our active pursuits that success starts to shape and eventually comes to fruition
So, don’t wait for something to inspire you. Instead, make the move! Create the conditions for you to feel inspired. Create the conditions for inspiration to flourish. Finish your tasks early so you’re not rushing. Pay close attention to your work to avoid inconveniences for you and your team. Improve your skills so you’re not reliant on others for help. Anything that enhances your situation, sparks your creativity or broadens your horizons, embrace it.
When you become the driving force behind your own life, when you take charge and become the inspiration you seek, something magical happens. Your life changes for the better. You start winning and suddenly, work is not so dreadful anymore. And as you inspire yourself, you get to light the way for others so that they too can overcome their own challenges and guide others to their own path of success. That kind of impact, of being able to drive positive change will be the most rewarding and biggest inspiration of all.
