If you settle for anything less than something that inspires you on a larger than life level, you’ll eventually come to the realization that what you are settling for just isn’t enough.
You can’t live a life of growth, purpose and happiness without inspiration as the fuel.
If people don’t inspire you, they leave you uninspired. They essentially leave you with absolutely nothing to aspire to.
Certainly, we can live a life of complacency. But to feel truly alive, we need to be growing and moving – not just emotionally, but mentally, and spiritually. We need to be growing in our faith to God. When we grow and move we feel alive. When our relationships restrict that growth and suffocate our experiences, they make us feel worse.
Slowly over time, we may feel uninspired. Those relationships may ruin us. Inspiration fuels strength. It also fuels a life of passion and personal growth. Without those, we may feel stagnant. We suffocate.
If there’s one thing in life that moves me, it is finding someone with inspiration. Nothing is worse than being discouraged, unmotivated and misunderstood by the very same person that you have taken a vow to love. It’s important to find someone that has a similar attitude and perspective as you – while you can’t change someone, finding someone who does have the qualities you need will help you become a better person (and vice versa).
Inspiration can help you find happiness within the confines of your soul, joy in activities you may never have thought of doing or experiencing love in places your heart has never ever been to.
Inspiration is…
Hope – fueled by creativity and imagination
Motivation – without the “force”
Encouragement – with a splash of heart
Positive energy – that’s there to gently lead your heart
Emotional foundation – of a life much more grounded and positive
Lack of inspiration is stagnation, which breeds boredom, which leads to fear. Fear stifles our thinking and our actions; it creates indecisiveness.
Inspiration will help us move forward and grow in life, to be happy, and feel empowered from within. It makes us better people – better yet, it moves us to feel in ways we haven’t ever felt before. That, in turn, can lead us to care for someone other than ourselves.
It is the zest of life that can help us reach levels we never thought we were capable of aiming for.
Be inspired. And be the inspiration that others need in return.
