"Doing what inspires you inspires others."

"Doing what inspires you inspires others."

Something that I've identified to be a cornerstone to my best life is living ‘inspired’. There’s a fulfillment that comes with the boldness and pace of an inspired life. It makes you feel unstoppable and like you’re applying yourself fully to the things you care about.?

But beyond the impact it has on you, “doing what inspires you inspires others.”

Think about the times when you've been deeply inspired by someone else. Maybe it was a friend who decided to pursue a lifelong dream, a colleague who went above and beyond to bring a creative idea to life, or even a stranger who showed incredible resilience in the face of adversity. We hold a deep respect for these people because we know how hard it is to live a bigger and better life, and we admire when other people find ways to overcome the resistance. We can see when people live inspired, and it inspires us to do the same.

When you follow your inspiration, you're not just taking a step toward your own fulfillment, you're also lighting a path for others. Inspiration is contagious. It spreads effortlessly from one person to another, creating a chain reaction of positive energy and motivation.

Imagine if we all pursue our passions, no matter how big or small, and share our journey with those around us. The impact would be incredible as we lift each other up.

But again, it’s not easy. You need to be brave. Some people will criticize you and tell you you’re annoying, overly idealistic, and out of touch with reality. But that’s just their insecurities and limitations projected on you. If you want to live on fire it’s up to you to protect your flame.

That’s what I want to encourage you to lean into. Maybe there’s a hobby you've been neglecting, a goal you've set aside, or a dream that feels just out of reach. Whatever it is, take that first step and see how good it feels to live inspired. Beyond the joy and purpose you’ll bring into your own life, you'll? give others permission to do the same.

I appreciate this reminder Brian. It’s especially helpful to get back to that spark within that represents the “why” we do what we do when challenges come up or things don’t work out as we’d planned/hoped. The difficulties aren’t a sign we’re on the wrong path, but that we’re *in* the arena. I was recently inspired by a friend who is starting her own consultancy. She shared how things are falling into place within her network and opportunities are coming to her. Just as you mentioned, that conversation reinvigorated me to press on toward my goals, as I celebrated her wins!
