The little secret to staying super inspired, from Robin Sharma.

For those of you who know me, will know that i’ve been a huge fan of Robin Sharma for many years. I’ve completed some of his courses and have a lot of his books. For me, his words always resonate.

I’m sharing the following , enjoy.

It’s so very simple yet ever so rarely practiced: the secret to staying inspired is to avoid those things that de-inspire you.

That means that, each and every day—for the remainder of your gorgeous and valuable life—you:

—avoid people who bring you down
—avoid activities that drain your hope
—avoid books and shows that steal your joy
—avoid thoughts that degrade your game
—avoid places that make you feel bad

Personally, reading uplifting words fuels my inspiration dramatically [this ritual also causes your dopamine levels to surge nicely].

And so—in the spirit of sincere service—I’ve opened my heart to write an inspirational piece for you to review as part of your 5AM Club morning routine.

Here we go…

Go out into this cruel and beautiful world with a heart full of heroism and eyes set to witness the full glory of your powers.

Yes, some seasons will bring misfortune and some times will be hard.

Yet, there is much good in daily life. Neighbors who appreciate you, friends who enliven you and family that adores you.

When it comes to those who wish less than your dreams for you, know they know not what they do. Send them the good wishes that reflect your patience. And the kind understanding that displays your sincere forgiveness. It is a bold act of honor and strength to keep good feelings towards all others within you.

Work richly and with dignity, giving more than you receive and producing the magic that honours your maker. And respects your genius.

Keep your life simple, as an addiction to acquisition and deep craving for more can stifle your spirit and hurt your good heart.

Give more than you take. Be more helpful than is necessary. And treat each person you meet with decency. This is a route to inner peace and outer success.

Enjoy the company of wise people, the companionship of inspiring books and a healthy relationship with your finest self.

When the crowd seeks to make you like them, stay true to your path—leading by your virtues and the values that feel most real to you.

Remain daring, knowing that the meek and timid do not know the soaring flights that come by leaning into your fears. To postpone the life of your ideals is to invite regret into your days.

Remember that terror is closer to triumph than complacency. And that fear becomes faith when you walk into it.

Enjoy the fruits of your labor and the accolades of your masterwork. Now.

Love gently, respecting all around you and the earth that nourishes you.

Beautifully said Mr Sharma, thank you.
