I Am Inspired
I am inspired
What is it that you really want to do ?
What is your own special dream that you want to live out ?
Do you believe your life is going to be a masterpiece like the Mona Lisa, or is it some smudged finger painting ?
Ultimately it begins with a choice. It begins with a decision that no matter what, you are going to live your life as a work of art by getting inspired from all the great people around you.

What Is Inspiration?
“To succeed you need to find something to hold on to, something to motivate you, something to inspire you.” – Tony Dorsett
Many people think of it as a quality that is elusive and can’t be forced, and yet it can be found if you choose to look for it.
Others think it’s a way to generate ideas, but it’s more than just ideas… it’s being moved to put those ideas into ACTION.
Inspiration is all around, if you know where to look. When your life is chugging along slowly, without much enthusiasm, try these four places to put it back into high gear.
1. Your country's flag.
No matter what country you live in, millions of patriotic men and women before you made sacrifices so you can enjoy a better life. Every time you see a flag, let it inspire you to vote, conserve energy or resources, or volunteer. Your country will be made stronger for the generations who follow you.
2. Appliances and electronics.
Every man-made device you see in your home or at work started with an idea in someone's mind. Often it took the inventor years of struggle and development to make his dream a reality. If they succeeded, you can too. Every new idea is attacked by critics and naysayers. But when you look at your car, television, or refrigerator, let these successful products remind you that with enough hard work, dreams do come true.
3. A school building.
When you see a school, think about all the teachers who dedicated their lives to your education. Remember too, that learning is a lifelong process. Curiosity keeps you
