How to Find Inspiration and Fuel Your Success
You ever wonder what separates those who take massive action and build extraordinary lives from those who stay stuck? It’s inspiration. Every successful person has harnessed inspiration to push past obstacles, stay committed, and take action—even when it’s hard. But here’s the truth most people don’t realize: inspiration doesn’t just strike out of nowhere. You have to create it.
Too many people wait until they feel “ready” to take action. They think they need motivation before they start. But the real secret to success is that action creates inspiration, not the other way around. You have to take that first step, push forward, and momentum will follow.
Because life isn’t just about finding yourself—it’s about creating yourself. And to create the life you want, you have to take action.
How to Find Inspiration and Passion
If you want to wake up feeling driven and unstoppable, the first step is finding your passion. When you’re doing something that excites you, that energy becomes your fuel. That’s why the most successful people don’t settle for average—they align their lives with what truly lights them up.
So how do you find what inspires you? You explore. You push yourself outside your comfort zone.
You won’t discover what drives you by staying in the same routines, doing the same things, and playing it safe. Inspiration comes when you stretch yourself, meet new people, try new things, and chase big goals.
My Personal Strategies for Finding Inspiration
Whenever I need to refuel my energy and get clarity, I step away from the noise and spend time alone. One of my favorite things to do is book a night at a hotel, bring my notebook, and just journal. I take a deep dive into my goals—what I want, why I want it, and what excites me. This process clears my mind and recharges my drive.
Here are a few other things that keep me inspired:
- Gratitude & Visualization: Every morning, I meditate on what I’m grateful for—and I also express gratitude for the things I want, as if they’ve already happened.
- Nature Walks: Getting outside, moving my body, and feeling connected to the world around me always gives me perspective and inspiration.
- Powerful Content: Watching a great TED Talk or a motivational YouTube video instantly lifts my energy.
- Inspirational Quotes & Books: Reading books by successful people is one of the best ways to soak in wisdom and inspiration.
- Bucket Lists: Sit down with your partner or a close friend and create a list of things that truly excite you. When you start thinking about all the amazing things you want to experience in this life, you’ll feel a new fire inside you.
- Goal Setting & Vision Boards: Writing down your goals and why they matter is powerful. Take it further by collecting images of your goals and placing them where you can see them every day.
- Giving Back: Want to feel truly inspired? Help others. Volunteer, donate, or join a cause that matters to you.
- Surrounding Yourself with Passionate People: Energy is contagious. Spend time with people who are excited about life and push you to be better.
You Already Have Everything You Need to Be Inspired
Inspiration is already inside you. You just have to tap into it. Tap into that business mindset.
Think back to a time when you accomplished something incredible—something that made you proud. Relive that moment in your mind. That drive, that energy, that fire—you still have that inside you.
And if you’re feeling stuck? Move. Exercise, pick up a book, step into a new environment. Do anything to change your state, and inspiration will follow.
Success is 80% mindset and 20% strategy. If you want to be successful, you need to stay inspired, set clear goals, and take massive action.
