Maintaining our Inspiration and infecting others!

 

It is a generally recognised fact that people who exert the most influence for 'their cause' and who get positive results are those who best maintain their own inspiration and infect others with their passion.  'Inspiration' usually comes from within ourselves as a result of incidences - eureka moments - that have occurred to us at some time in our earlier life.  By recognising and reliving these incidents they can be a constant source of inspiration to us in our daily efforts to take forward our current work, whatever that might be. I will mention 'incidents' that helped me choose and get me through my career and invite those of you at the workshop to recognise similar eureka moments that have helped or can help in your own lives. I will be drawing on a few of the ideas from the book: "From Hippos to Gazelles - how leaders create leaders" by Philip Goodwin and Tony Page who recently ran a course for VINE Members. (ISBN 978-1-904235-45-3, 2008). Inspiration 'from within' is a hugely powerful force that can be helpful on a daily basis!
