For me I find that inspiration needs a bit of ‘lubricant’ to keep flowing and I find this in the form of change. I will constantly modify my routine in little ways because I have a very easy time getting stuck in a rut. I find this small adjustment technique works very well. When I need to get something done I don’t automatically go to the place where I work. Instead I go to somewhere I’ve never been. I find that things get stale very quickly if I experience them too often so even these small changes provide the ‘lubricant’ I need to keep the inspiration flowing.

Great post obviously…

1. Eat inspiration for breakfast.
“Who do you want to be like?” Is a great thought to have first thing in the morning. Even though I am not an early riser, (a night owl is this wee lass) nevertheless taking your advice, I have been inspired to do the same.

2. Reflect on Why
“Without that purpose, it can be hard to stay inspired.” The funny thing is I know exactly “why”. What I have failed to do is remind myself regularly. Taking time to breathe it in so to speak so it is flowing through my being. Each day. Just to use as a marker. Thank you reminding me to reflect.

By the by a little thing I used to do to get inspired is to look around at my surroundings and seek all the beauty I could from all things. It could have been a tin glinting in the sun, or a leaf on the ground. I also found architecture, (and more generally just looking up) great for kick starting inspiration.

Thank you much!
