Inspire, the word itself doesn’t mean anything until you are inspired by someone who you never thought would make a difference in your life. A simple gratitude that is meant nothing but a great movement. A clear awareness of what one can want in their life, but is not able to reach it. In everyone’s life there is that one person that has inspired them, changed the perspective of one ways of thinking, to find themselves to evolve and bloom higher within. It’s not a task, it’s as simple as knowing how to find the one thing in them to bring out. Not an easy movement, it is difficult because the person who is inspiring you is doing it for the sake of the good of him or her only.

Inspiration can help you to mend your wounds. I believe that we all have inspirations in our lives, right? So at this moment I would like everyone to remember or think about someone who inspires you to get up every morning and motivates you to do work. Now, I think everyone would agree that our inspirations are the source of our positivity when we are down; they are the ones who motivate us to do what we love to do, and the reason why we believe in ourselves.

QUOTES

“Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.” — Theodore Roosevelt.

“Trust yourself that you can do it and get it.” — Baz Luhrmann

“Push yourself, because no one else is going to do it for you.”

“The harder you work for something, the greater you’ll feel when you achieve it.”

Psychologists Todd M. Thrash and Andrew J. Elliot have noted these core aspects of inspiration: evocation, transcendence, and approach motivation. First, inspiration is evoked spontaneously without intention. Inspiration is also transcendent of our more animalistic and self-serving concerns and limitations. Such transcendence often involves a moment of clarity and awareness of new possibilities. As Thrash and Elliot note, “The heights of human motivation spring from the beauty and goodness that precede us and awaken us to better possibilities.” This moment of clarity is often vivid, and can take the form of a grand vision, or a “seeing” of something one has not seen before . Finally, inspiration involves approach motivation, in which the individual strives to transmit, express, or actualize a new idea or vision. According to Thrash and Elliot, inspiration involves both being inspired by something and acting on that inspiration.
