How to always stay inspired and motivated

With increasing stress levels in our lives, more and more people are finding that it is difficult to remain inspired and motivated all the time.The problems are many and the solutions are often not found easily. In such a situation to remain enthusiastic all the time is not an easy task.However a life without enthusiasm , without any motivation creates a vacuum . Our lives loses its vitality.We need to ask ourselves are we living a life without any purpose or are do we have enough zeal and enthusiasm to stay inspired and motivated in all our activities as well as help others associated with us to do remain so .In this post we look at some of the tips  which if we try and follow and inculcate in our lives will help us to feel and stay inspired and motivated in our day to day lives.

One needs to make the time to connect with ones more playful side, the child within our selves.To energise ourselves it is beneficial to take time to study the positive qualities of children and model their ability to stay energised, imaginative and completely in the moment no matter what may be going around them. The child in us remains alive throughout our lives but as we grow, we bury that child deep within ourselves and stop reacting to our natural instinct which is very much like a small child awed at the beauty of the life that the almighty has bestowed on us.Reconnecting with this part of our own selves enables us to be completely clued to the present and also is a beautiful way to stay inspired and motivated in all our activities just like the way we used to be when we ourselves were children.

Inspiration and motivation can also be got from looking at the lives of ordinary people living extra ordinary lives. Adversity does not dither them.They look at them as opportunity waiting to be unleashed and explored to unearth the true purpose of their lives. The other day I was watching a program on the television which was an award ceremony organised by the Times group in which the ordinary citizens of India were being awarded for their exemplary performance in their own respective fields. Each of those individuals, each of those stories were inspirational. They were all ordinary people like all of us from different backgrounds but each of them were living extra ordinary lives. Challenges do not stop them in fact they see them as opportunities and get motivated to resolve them with renewed vigour.If there is a lack of motivation and inspiration in our own lives it helps if we connect with such motivated people as they help us in rediscovering our own selves and live a life full of enthusiasm.

To regain ones enthusiasm and to remain inspired and motivated all the time it is important for us to be connected with our own purpose.If one is aware of what one wants it is easier to stay motivated and inspired.It is also important to put challenges in front of us on a daily basis and be our own judge, this helps us in realising our mistakes , look at our lives from different perspectives and helps us in improving our own selves for a better future.

A smile is a marvellous expression. We need to get in to the habit of putting up a smile.Whatever be the situation in our lives, it always helps to put up a smile. This somewhere connects with our subconscious mind and tells it that we can handle it all and we will continue to remain optimistic in every given situation.It spreads energy and enthusiasm and keeps us inspired and motivated helping us to fulfil and realise our dreams.We should learn to look at the positives in our lives. Initially it takes time, but later it becomes a habit.

To be inspired and motivated it is of paramount importance to stay healthy. Only a person who is both physically and mentally healthy can remain enthusiastic and motivated to do things he wants to do. Eating properly and proper sleep is essential for us to maintain semblance in our lives. It keeps us focussed and helps us in  channelising our energies in the proper direction.If one is finding it difficult to make the most out of their day to day lives there is an amazing guide created by none other than one of the most reputed blogger of our times, Steve Aitchison wherein he shows us steps to become an Advanced Early riser. The Guide further shows us how to maximise our time to work on our passions, our goals in life and teaches us how to get a great nights sleep. We can all use a little extra times in our lives, with this guide one can easily gain 7-28 extra hours per week. Click here


To top it all one needs to have faith, faith in our selves and faith in life as such."As human beings our tendency is to tell life to listen to what we want. But life doesn't work that way.It gives us what we need what is best for us, what is in our highest interest.Your life will work much better once you begin to listen to life. Let it lead you rather than trying to push it"-Robin Sharma
