Wow! These last couple of weeks have been pretty hectic and
it feels like forever since I last posted. Here I am, supposed to be assisting
in motivating and inspiring others, and I’ve found I’ve been the one in need of
the motivating help. Juggling the everyday tasks merged with family on goings,
writing seemed to be put off to the side. My get up and go, had got up and
gone!
A much needed break was taken and off I went to sit by the
ocean for the weekend. The sound of the waves had always been a soothing, it’d be
a place I’d go to and write or draw. A lot of my poetry was written whilst sitting
at the beach and I thought what better place to find that inspiration and
motivation that had disappeared.
Nope! That didn’t work, but that may have been due to the
fact that I didn’t want to do anything except relax. The get up and go was
replaced with the sit back and slump. I needed a new avenue.
So, where does a motivator find motivation?
I started off with my usual tactics – looked at my visual
goals, read inspirational material, even read over my previous post from March
(If you’d like to have a look Click
here) and that didn’t seem to be doing it. I decided to have a scour over
the Internet and have a read of some other motivational and inspiring stories.
There is an absolute abundance of content out there!! Below
is just some of the ones I enjoyed the most and gained that little extra boost.

I could have easily
compiled a list of 100 or more but I wanted to get these out to you all as
quickly as possible. I want you to find that extra boost you may be needing at
the moment, and hopefully one of the places I mentioned above, will be able to
provide exactly that.
Maybe you know of
some others that would be of help, I’d love to hear about them if you do.
Until next time,
Stay safe, stay
smiling J
