Each day of my life, I strive to be original, creative, and open-minded.
I endeavor to come up with ideas at work about how to do something more efficiently. At home, I look for strategies to help me accomplish ordinary routines in ways that bring interest, opportunities to share, and completion of tasks. And to do all of these things, I am required to be inspired.
The process of finding inspiration brings out the best in me.
I notice I listen to others with my whole heart so I can glean the most important thoughts and ideas from the conversation.
I observe others with curiosity. I want to know what they are involved in and how they accomplish their goals in an average day. I am often inspired by watching a co-worker engage in a task in a different manner than I do.
I marvel at the inspiration I gather from my children. They bring to my life a never-ending sense of wonder and a “can do” spirit.
It seems that, regardless of where I go and what I am doing, something inspiring finds its way to me.
Today, my plan is to find inspiration from my natural surroundings. I am proud of the fact that my eyes are wide open when it comes to discovering inspiration.
Self-Reflection Questions:
- How easy is it for me to come up with a new idea?
- What have I seen today that inspires me?
- What can I do to insure I consistently notice the inspiration around me?
