What inspires you?  There are so many movies based on true life stories that really inspire…Rudy, My All American, From the Rough, Finding Forrester, Men of Honor, to name a few.  Those movies about real people living their real lives come to mind, and they set a fire in my heart, my mind, and my gut. 

I could attempt to describe these real-life inspirations in a few sentences here, but it wouldn’t do them justice, so I’ll let you watch and decide if they touch you.  And, there are so many more stories of inspiration in the world all around us.  People are doing amazing things, in amazing ways, in all walks of life. 

They live to their own potential and therefore give the gift of themselves to others.  They inspire me to fulfill my potential.  They make me want to join the party of living life with passion, commitment, and joy, using my full ability to my full potential.  How about you?

It’s a process.  When you see someone giving it their all, growing in the process, achieving in the process, believing in themselves, reveling in the joy of their authenticity, maximizing their time in this one life, in what ways are you inspired?  Do you think, what am I waiting for? Remember, you are the only you there will ever be in this life…there will never be another person just like you. 

The time is now.  How can you maximize your purpose?  How can you use your gifts and talents to inspire yourself and others?  How much can you really accomplish?  You won’t know until you give it your all, without holding anything back.  Whatever doesn’t work, learn from and try again.

People may say it doesn’t matter…just do what you need to do to get by…take whatever you can get…who really cares?  But I say, “Who cares?  I do...Me.  I care.  I care because I matter to myself.”

What would change for you if you gave it 100%?  What’s holding you back?  I’ve given things 100% before, and it feels great.  It’s not always easy, as there will always be people challenging you to back off. 

Amazingly, that is what makes the story of those people’s lives so special.  They followed through, and if they did back off for a moment, they came charging back to complete their life’s mission.  They stayed the course of their belief in themselves, their dreams, and their purpose.  I get chills thinking about it.  How about you?

We all come into this world for an amazing purpose, find yours.  Find what inspires you, because that’s your first clue to your purpose.  Inspiration hits home.  It’s personal.  Where can you find that inspiration?  I want to live my purpose, and I can’t wait to see you living yours!

Here’s to a life of passion, positivity, joy, fulfillment, and more!
