What I Do To Stay Inspired

-

Hey my lovely readers, hope you are well.

I thought I'd do a blog about what inspires me and what keeps me working towards my goals.

I think we all need things to be inspired of and these things should be able to keep us positive and motivated.  Lots of things keeps me feeling inspired, family, friends, positive people, motivational books or a great message shared on social media. I love surrounding myself with inspiration and great things, when I am struggling with something difficult or just having a hard day, I will look out for these things. However they keep me going however my day is going, being inspired by something doesn't need to happen on a low day, everyday we should feel inspired by something to keep us going forward and achieving our goals and aspirations.   

Staying inspired means to be excited and intrigued in the subject or thing. To be inspired I need to be fully committed to that particular thing that makes me feel excited. For example, I need to feel excited to be able to blog to feel inspired about what I am writing about. To be inspired to write, I might read old blogs that I wrote years ago or read other people's blogs to get some ideas about what is popular at that time. My favourite thing to do before starting to blog is to see what is trending and what people like reading and researching. I may ask family or friends about what they like seeing on my blogs and what I can change about it to keep it fresh and exciting for the next time I blog. Positive and helpful feedback always allows me to keep going with my ideas and my future blogs.

Feeling inspired and exciting about something can help us to open new doors and keep setting and reviewing our goals and mindset. This helps me to keep inspired when I have a new goal and a positive path to follow, I like setting myself goals no matter how small or big they are, they keep me going and inspirers me to do well. For example I feel inspired when I go in my walker because I like being able to walk and weight bare through my legs, this makes me feel inspired as its encouraging me to use my walker. It inspires me because I know the more I use it, the stronger and fitter I'll be, also I feel I might become more Independent as I am able to do more for myself. What I'm trying to say is the more you are repetitive with something, the more inspired you are to keep going with it.

Picture this: Have you ever picked up a book and read the first page and was bored? Do you put the book down and just forget about it, or do you keep going with the story and it turns out to be the best book you've read. This is where the inspiration comes from, not everything you do in life won't give you instant inspiration, we've got to stick with the idea and when we do decide we like an idea or concept we work with it until we love it. We can decide its not for us after we have tried it and this is ok, its ok not to not to enjoy something, so the things we like and enjoy inspires us more and more, so this is why its good to try new things.   We might not like our jobs at first or wonder why that Tiktok didn't do as well, this is why we feel inspired to say "ok, this isn't working how can we change this?" That change is going to inspire us for next time, so we learn from inspiration and the change we make is going to makes us stronger and a better person.       

Being inspired allows you to take in more exciting information and you are able to learn even more when you are inspired. When you are inspired by something, you are more willing to give something a go. I find if I am inspired by something like a good book or something someone has told me, I am more open to try something. The biggest inspiration we get is from people around us and the things we choose to have around us. If we always look for the bad in whatever we are doing,  we will always struggle to fall in love with something.   So being inspired by a positive outlook is always a good step forward. I like being able to take inspiration from little things through my day as it makes me smile.

What inspires you? Let that be a daily question you ask yourself and smile when you are proud of whatever has inspired you.

Hope you have enjoyed reading this blog.

Slowly approaching the next stage of life

Hey guys Thought this blog may help others that are starting to think about coming to the end of school, sixth form, college, uni etc and have worries or fears about starting a chapter in life. I am in my last year at sixth form and starting to think about what is best for me in terms of needs, skills, learning to work with a wider range of people etc. I don't know about others but I worry about going somewhere new, meeting new people and adapting to their way of working. It scares the hell out of me but how I look at it is I am there to widen my own knowledge and skills to better myself for the future. Has anyone got to the school gates or waiting for a interview for college or uni etc and thought I don't want to be here, lets face it we all have been in similar situations. I remember sitting in a meeting to start sixth form and felt physically sick and was thinking will I be ok to do the course? will I get along with the people... 2 years on sixth form feels like my secon...

Get Over Yourself...We're Only Disabled! Part 25

Get Over Yourself ... We're Only Disabled ! Hey my lovely readers. I hope you are well.  Acknowledgements   Well, what can I say? I can't believe I have written my first book!  It took me a whole year to write this, with support from staff at National Star College and my family.  I thought writing a book would be really difficult and I would have just given up over time but despite amending how many chapters I wanted in this book, I achieved what I wanted to get out of writing a book. I must admit that I haven't worked on “Get Over Yourself, We’re Only Disabled” religiously.  However, it has been refreshing to have a goal to work towards.  Something that can be my thing, my aim, and my success.  I feel that I have achieved that. I want to say a massive thank you to my family for helping me over the years to get to this point where I’ve been able to write this book and have the knowledge and understanding of my life and mine...

Up Movement, The Adult Cerebral Palsy Movement Hi my lovely readers, hope you are well. I know after I finished posting my book, I wasn't sure on what to post on my blog. So I decided to have a little break to think about what I could post about but I really wanted to come back with a special idea for my blogs, I wanted to talk about what is interesting me lately. I attend a Zoom meeting each week with a lovely organisation called UP movement, a group set up by an amazing lady called Emma and then another brilliant lady called Mirriam. Emma has Cerebral Palsy herself, so that in its self is really lovely as it gives others a sense of achievement and encouragement, just to learn about her journey with Cerebral Palsy. Emma is incredible, she has Cerebral Palsy, however she is a wife and a mother, she is the founder of Up Movement and a strong advocate and a voice for people with Cerebral Palsy.    The people who attend are adults with Cerebral Palsy, so this ...
