Tuesday Topics: Five Things That Inspire Me

Inspiration can often be difficult to come by for me. I have recently found that in my job I've been lacking inspiration and writing this post is a great motivator to find it again!

1. Family

This is my favorite photo from our wedding day. There's nothing like family who can motivate you in the right direction because they want to see you conquer your dreams. Plus, it brings the family so much joy to see me happy when I'm doing things that I love.

2. Faith

Often, when I'm feeling down or blue, I'll turn to my faith to see me through it all. I can always find the right quote (like the one above) or scripture that gives me enough strength to hold on while the storm passes. 

3. Flowers

Seeing beautiful flowers can always inspire me. There's something about seeing the such beauty and I immediately feel at ease. Having fresh flowers in my dreary apartment can lift the mood and often inspire me to clean. :) 

4. Organized, clean, well lit, well designed spaces

This is reminding me that I really need to clean my apartment. :) To be honest, no one can focus and feel completely at ease in a cluttered space. They need something clean, organized and well lit.

5. New places

I love going to new places and exploring. There's something invigorating about the adventure of seeing somewhere new and seeing how people live. I often take lessons away from my adventures and learn how to make myself a little better one journey at a time. There's always so much to see and do in this world!

Other things that inspire me that deserve an honorable mention-- articles, good books, music, lovely friends, to name a few.

What inspires you?
