Max Ehrmann, a poet and lawyer from Terre Haute, Indiana, lived from 1872 to 1945. It has been reported that his poem titled “Desiderata” was inspired by an urge that Ehrmann wrote about in his diary: “I should like, if I could, to leave a humble gift – a bit of chaste prose that had caught up some noble moods”.

It’s difficult to be inspired if you’re stuck in a negative state. Inspiration is not just a flash of vision, it’s a motivation that births creativity.
People who get inspired are usually the ones more eager to jump into a project and stick with it. Inspired people have greater confidence not to doubt themselves.
Every day, seek out personal moments of clarity, increasing your awareness of new possibilities that surround you.

Sometimes, you’ll find me recommending or presenting the same product(s) more than one time.
When repeating a training or using a tool that I’ve used or come across before, often I’ll “see” something brand new or have a fresh insight/perspective, that I might not have picked up on earlier. In that moment, perhaps I am finally “ready” to REALLY hear and receive its message or lesson.
It is not unlike seeing a movie for the second time and realizing that I’d not remembered seeing a particular scene, from the first viewing. As Nelson Mandela once said…
“There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.”
When you see something that has already been presented to you once before, then I invite you to revisit it anyhow.
Give up any judgement about whether it is “good” or “bad”. It JUST IS and you are alive, so you’re in luck. You get to choose, again!
I love these words from Gelett Burgess…
“If in the last few years you haven’t discarded a major opinion or acquired a new one, check your pulse. You may be dead.”
Tens of thousands of people, from many countries & backgrounds, receive Forward Steps emails. Everyone is at different stages of their life journey, everyone is looking for different things and experiencing different things.
Some of us learn best by hearing, others are more visual and yet others love to gather information by reading. This makes for a phenomenal challenge, in satisfying everybody’s individual needs and preferences. Even should we assume “that nothing is impossible” – this challenge gives an awfully good impression of “impossible”!
We are all different. Seldom one solution fits all. I provide a vast array of resources (hundreds, in fact) to cater for a multi-dimensional audience and I always recommend you remember this quote…
Absorb what is useful, discard what is not and add what is uniquely your own. -Bruce Lee Share on XIn Lak’ech Ala K’in,
