1. Use motivational quotes and affirmations. It seems that no matter how many times you read or hear your favorite quote, it resonates with you almost as much as the very first time you heard it. Adding to your collection will bring you an ever-flowing streams of new inspiration.
As your goals change, look for quotes and affirmations that reflect your new path so you can gain the inspiration to persevere in your new direction.
2. Find inspirational images. Sometimes you come across inspiration by observing nature, like a beautiful sunset, an ocean shoreline or leaves turning brilliant colors in the fall. Other times you may be inspired by a photograph, an image in a book, or a painting at an art gallery.
Perhaps the beauty of an image will inspire you to create something beautiful of your own. In the process, you'll find new excitement and motivation to carry over into the other areas of your life.
An image can be placed on your vision board to remind you of your destination, which will motivate you to work more quickly with targeted focus to reach your goal.
Once you find an image that inspires you, rely upon it during stressful or difficult times as a visual reminder to keep moving forward. Feel the energy of love pouring from your heart and project it on to the situation you want to heal.
3. Let other people inspire you with their stories. When you hear someone's story of personal triumph or hardship while standing in line at the neighborhood post office or sitting in the waiting room at your local doctor's office, you just may be able to relate to this person.
Listen to other people and really pay attention to what they are saying. This will take the focus off of your own problems. Sometimes the answer to a problem of yours will come from listening to other people. When you listen to another person, seek out their stories and let them inspire you! When you are inspired by another person, this opens the channels in you to become more creative in solving your own problems.
4. Watch motivational videos. Websites like YouTube offer a variety of motivational and inspirational videos. Some videos, such as the late Randy Pausch's poignant "Last Lecture," has inadvertently inspired millions, even though it was originally intended for a much more personal audience. People often use YouTube to tell their stories, share successes, and offer advice or encouragement. When facing a challenge, or if you need some words of wisdom from someone who's been there, done that, you'll surely find inspiration there.
