Where Does Inspiration Really Come From?

Have you ever wondered what inspiration is all about?
How do you get inspired? Who inspires you? What inspires you?
“Inspiration” is such a mainstream concept that people are trying to ‘get’ from so many external sources these days. Social media has become a source for inspiration with the videos and stories you can find. I have been inspired by many people, video’s and stories I’ve seen online. These snippets of inspiration are heartwarming and positive but not long lasting. I believe inspiration comes from a place inside of ourselves. We need to generate our own inspiration from within us. We must not rely solely on external factors. Stop ‘waiting’ for that big moment where something will happen to you, for that mentor to up or for your knight in shining armor to come and save you from the mundane life you’re settling for until inspiration comes and slaps you in the face. Inspire yourself to do something that inspires you and create the feeling which will drive you to another level. Demand more of yourself. I think we have all heard the quote “next level thinking leads to next level being”. It’s true. If you want to be inspired, allow the thinking to start with you. The rest will take care of itself. It is crucial we keep our eyes open for those nuggets of inspiration and the people we surround ourselves with will rub off on us. Keep close to those people who understand you, motivate you, excite and love you. The inspiration will be flowing more than ever before provided you take the time to be grateful for these incredible interactions and not rely on them solely for inspiration. Combine these amazing human experiences with the creation of your own energy to inspire and you will achieve remarkable heights and your inspiration levels will be off the charts.
