I feel inspired. I feel empowered. I feel that I can do
anything that I set my mind to!
Honestly that is how I feel. I am in love with this feeling. I know in the past this feeling has guided me to do
revolutionary things in my personal and professional life. I know that I
accomplished many of the things I set out to do. However, the challenge is remaining inspired all the time. Somewhere along the path
the following distractions always seemed to raise their ugly heads. These include hectic schedules filled
with things I cared a lot about but too many I cared very little about, well-meaning
but distracting friends, family and colleagues, lazy summer days and/or just a general lack of enthusiasm based on my work
environment and/or the political and economic climate.
However, wouldn’t it be lovely if this undeniable magnetic
energy and gung-ho and motivated attitude could be bottled and released
whenever we needed an energy boost? I certainly think so. If I could share how
I feel with all of you now, I certainly would.
This week, I was fortunate enough to be involved in a CDB
Train the Trainers workshop for marketing for small hotels in St. Lucia. The
workshop exceeded my expectations because I truly feel that I walked away with
so much more value than simply knowledge about marketing. I feel that the
workshop provided an opportunity and avenue for introspection that I really
needed especially concerning my professional life. I had already started to
make strides in making some changes but I feel that this past week has given me
the extra push and will power that I needed to run instead of walking at a
leisurely pace.
Life is interesting because you don’t know who you will meet
or maybe what you will hear or what you will do that will lift your mood,
motivate, inspire, empower or simply change your life for the best.
I have met some amazing, inspiring people along my life’s
journey so far. However, the set that I met during this last week came along
just when I needed them to. They are entrepreneurs and budding entrepreneurs,
fitness enthusiast and trainers who just want to bring out the best in those
they interact with. They inspired and they encouraged and I feel richer for
having met them.
Today, I believe I can do anything that I put my mind to. I
can remain focused. I can be brave.
How about you? Do you inspire others by the things you say
and do? Have you met someone who has truly inspired you to do more and be more?
If you haven’t, then you need to expand your circle to
persons who can help you to reach your full potential. If there is something
you have been meaning to do today big or small, I hope that I may be a voice of
positivity and inspiration. Go for it! The world really has too many people who
continue to say ‘I could have or I should have’ instead of ‘I did It.’
Drop me a line to say you did it!
