Everyone loves the feeling of being inspired. Inspiration makes us feel capable of accomplishing anything. We feel more energetic, have a better attitude, are more productive, and our physical health is better.
Inspiration is not always easy to find, and it often fades quickly. Inspiration flashes in the form of a spark, but it quickly fades to a dim flame.
Inspiration doesn’t have to be so difficult. There are many ways to find inspiration and keep it going. You may be able to find inspiration that lasts and inspires others. Continue reading to learn five steps to inspire others.
Be passionate.
As a plant cannot grow without soil, water and sunlight, so too will inspiration fade without its first ingredient: passion. Are you living and working in a place devoid of joy, creativity, and life? You must love what you do and be happy where you are at the moment. This will help you find and keep inspiration. Inspiration will come easily if you are passionate about what you do.
Set a goal.
Without a purpose, inspiration is useless. It will be difficult to find inspiration without a purpose. It is important to understand what you are trying to accomplish and what you hope to gain from it. Inspiration is easily found if you are passionate about something and have a purpose.
What are your goals?
Although you might think that defining your goals is the most important part of this process you need to first have your passions and purpose. You can then set a goal that is related to your passions and purpose. This will increase your chances of achieving your goals and ensure that your purpose is being fulfilled.
Get inspired.
Now that you have the foundation, it is time to start igniting the fires of inspiration. Everybody finds inspiration in different places. Some people enjoy a quiet walk on the beach while others are drawn to the hustle and bustle of an urban street. Perhaps a book or movie inspires you. Many others still draw inspiration from the lives of those who have gone before them. Thomas Edison’s quote “Our greatest vulnerability lies in giving up.” It is important to keep trying, even if it seems impossible. This encourages people to persevere, no matter what their level of inspiration. No matter how you find inspiration, once you have the foundation, you can begin to light the fires.
Get involved!
When inspiration strikes you, don’t hesitate to take advantage of it. You must immediately take action to achieve your goals and never stop until you reach them. You can’t wait to see the movie where inspiration strikes. It is best to not do anything or delay action when inspiration strikes.
These steps will help you find inspiration. You might even find that your inspiration rubs off on others.
