inspiration

Inspiration usually comes during work, rather than before it.

This I know to be true. You do not have to wait for inspiration before you work. You work and you'll be inspired. This is true for me in writing. This is true for me in speaking.

And I did it better again and again after that. It was actually easier than what I thought. Do whatever you think you cannot do. When you think you cannot speak before a crowd, find your crowd and be their inspirational speaker. When you think you cannot lead people, find at least one person and help him become a better person. Then find another, then another until you are able to create your own tribe. When you think that there is way you can succeed in life, be like water.Find your way. When walls are too ...
