Living an Inspired Life
This month, at?Purpose Club, we are focusing our attention on …?living an inspired life. And the question I am asking is?what is most inspiring you in your life right now?
In last week’s?Purpose Club?webinar, I shared the story of when I met Mark on a flight to New York. Mark was sitting in 10B. I was sitting in 10A. We hadn’t said “Hello” to each other, yet.
Mark was busy scrolling through the inflight entertainment options using a remote control pad on the end of a string. I don't think he realized he could touch the screen, which would have been easier and faster.
“For Christ’s sake, what is going on!” shouted Mark, looking directly at me.
“What is it?” I asked, a bit startled.
“Well, there’s over 50 channels of entertainment here, and at least 200 movies, but I can’t find anything to watch!”
“Oh, I can tell you what the problem is,” I said to Mark.
“Tell me, what is it?”
“There’s lots of entertainment, but no inspiration,” I said.
For the next couple of hours, Mark and I talked about inspiration. “What inspires you?” I asked him. He said, “I’ve never asked myself that question. I know what inspiration is, I think. But I haven’t really thought about what inspires me.”
“Inspiration is necessary and dangerous!” I told Mark.
“I’m listening, go on,” said Mark.
“Inspiration is necessary if you want to feel alive, to live a meaningful life, and to follow your purpose.”
“But why is inspiration dangerous?”

“When you live an inspired life, you have to give up control, and you have to surrender to a higher power, be open to guidance, live in the mystery, and let yourself be led.”
When we said goodbye to each other, Mark thanked me for our conversation. He said, “If I’d found something to watch at the start of this flight, I would have been entertained, but I might have missed the chance to be inspired.“
In my book?Higher Purpose, I write about how to attract greater inspiration into your life and work. And I share one of my favourite quotes on inspiration by Wayne Dyer. He said,
“There is a voice in the Universe urging us to remember our purpose for being on this great Earth. This is the voice of inspiration, which is within each and every one of us.”
Now it’s my turn to ask you…?what is most inspiring you in your life right now??Give this question some time. Notice what is inspiring you. Be specific. Make a list. Draw a mind map. Pay attention to what is inspiring you and to the invitation it has for you.
I wish you a beautiful (and inspiring) day.
Robert
