Have you ever taken a moment to just sit in a room away from the chaos of life and close your eyes? In that moment take a deep breath in and think to yourself what makes you, you. It’s a question that goes misunderstood often times. Think to yourself what intrigues you, and what inspires you? It’s a common thing for most people to immediately say right off the bat what really inspires them but to the core is it true? We all have a funny way of going through the rhythm of day-to-day life but are we really living an inspiring one? Do we even know what really makes us interested to take on the day, to grow within our careers, to take that leap of faith to take on a new adventure? It’s a simple question to ask but it’s an even more difficult one to answer.
For me if asked what inspires me I would fashion, Jackie O, independent women, and I would say Ideally this is a correct answer but its an idealistic and materialistic view point. It’s not deep-rooted feelings or specific memoires. The more I sit and ponder the question I realize that I really don’t know what truly inspires me. This is a defeating statement to relay. I challenge myself to focus on what inspires me to be interesting and successful, what shapes me to live my life with passion and purpose? Its not past people or the idea of fashion that makes me lives a meaningful life. It’s the purpose and passion behind what I stand for as a person that leads me to feel success.
So now I challenge you to do these three things. Separate yourself from the chaos of your everyday rituals you call life and find what inspires you to bring purpose and value to your life. Write them down and read them every morning when you get up, when you go to bed and even dream about those three things. Allowing yourself to find what inspires you to be the person with passion is key to living a life of value and success. Just do it and the rewards will be plenty.
