Motivation From The Inside

When one is inspired, one does not need to be motivated from the outside! ~ Prasann Thakrar

This quote made me think because I know that I sometimes look for things outside myself to motivate me... such as a quote, or a book that makes me think.  Then I thought about it a little bit differently, I may look outside for a little inspiration but I always look inward to bring out what it was that inspired me to begin with.

I agree with the quote that we need to look inward for our motivation, we cannot look to others to get us there, certainly there are times that others will help us out but we always need to be helping others when we are strong.  When we look inward for our motivation, that strengthens us more that we are aware of...  I think my happiest time is when I have helped another person, through whatever means I possibly can and see the gratitude in their eyes, their smile.  Although this is not what I do it for,  I just want to help lift burdens. 

So, tomorrow I am going to write about one of my favorite bloggers and I am going to do this monthly.  I want to write what they inspire me about... what it is that excites me when they have blogged.  Many of the people that I follow, I feel as passionately about them as I do about the first person I am going to write about.  I am hoping you will take a look at the blogs I am going to talk about and that you will see what I see in them.  I think it's a great way to help each other.  I was inspired my another blogger to do this, I will blog about her next month.

Although I will definitely look inward for my motivation, I won't give up looking outward for a little inspiration here and there. 

I cherish my past, I accept my present and I dream for my future ♥
