Inspiration

Some days inspiration is hard to come by. It is always available in one form or another but can be hard to recognize depending on your mood and circumstances. When I am having a stressful morning or hit a road block in my work, inspriation takes a hike.

Have not figured out why inspriation is so fickle, or where it goes when it leaves, but I have a few guesses.

A lot of everyday things inspire me; my surroundings, my cat, my neighbors, music. So many strangers have inspired things I have written here and will probably never know they had a part in something I produced, something I felt.

For those feeling uninspired today, here are a few things to try to get inspiration to come back from his/her sabatical:

Go for a walk.

If you have a pet, quietly observe it for a while. See how content your dog/cat/other can be to sit silently in the sunshine.

Do something normal like wash dishes or clean out your sock drawer. Sometimes all the mind needs is a chance to relax while your hands are busy.

 

What inspires you?

    Pretty much the same that inspires you–walks, animals, paying attention while doing simple chores, having thought-provoking conversations with friends, finding a really great book to read…

  2. M Says:

    I find inspiration in the people that I spend the most time with… for instance, my wife is an inspiration to me.

"A truly good book teaches me better than to read it. I must soon lay it down, and commence living on its hint. What I began by reading, I must finish by acting."
