How Do You Get Inspired and Stay Motivated?

Write a blog. They said. Sure it would be fun. While it is that and many things, what the non-writers don’t understand, is the effort it takes to get a good result for the blog. Even if it’s just a personal one. You still have to get inspired by something. Whether it was what someone said, what your friends are doing or to anything extra special. So I thought it would be good to share the Google definitions of both of these words to help understand two entirely different things: 

Inspiration: the process of being mentally stimulated to do or feel something, especially to do something creative. 

Motivation: the reason or reasons one has for acting or behaving in a particular way. 

Motivation is the result of action and being able to do something. It keeps you wanting to do more of it. This one is probably a little harder to do than be inspired. It’s easy to stay, in other words, lazy, and not be able to come up with new content. But the point of blogging is to be able to keep having new aspirations. I hope this piece helps because I find both of these words really important when it comes to blogging or something to do with passion. It’s like you can’t have one without the other because then the blogger becomes restless. Start typing away or putting that pen into motion because something amazing is going to come from it!
