Have you ever wondered what
drives people to accomplish some of the amazing things they do?
Become inspired.
About 18 years ago I took my
kids, Matt & Shawna, to their first martial arts show. I will never forget
the very first question they asked after the show had ended.
“Can we do that”? They saw no
reason why they should not be in the
show. I had to agree with them. There was no reason they couldn’t be. They were
inspired by the martial artists in the show, creating a deep desire in each of
them to train harder, perfect their techniques, and try out for the show the
following year. Well they made the team. Representing Canada the following year
took them all the way to Switzerland to perform. The inspiration from that first show created such a desire deep within
them it has not left them to this day.
Matt and Shawna have since become world champion martial artists, branching off
into varying avenues of competition, teaching and learning. Now as I watch them
develop, I see Matt & Shawna inspiring others who follow them, stretching
themselves to become the best they can be. The desire this inspiration has
created spills over into every aspect of their lives, giving their best in all
they set out to accomplish, encouraging the same from their students.
Become inspired!
Inspiration creates desire. Desire
leads to thoughts. Focusing on those thoughts is the catalyst to changing our self-image
leading to the actions supporting our worthy ideal.
