For me there is no greater reward than inspiring others. Inspiration is one of the greatest thing to be able to give and one of the true goals of this blog. It is not easy, because to inspire you, to just make you thinking, to get a new insight or to do something worth doing, I personally have to excel as well. I think inspiration is an important piece of the puzzle to have happiness in life. So here you will find inspirational articles to live life fully and to never give up on life. We also look at the wisdom of the most inspirational people ever and examine the meaning of their past quotes, such as The Buddha, Lao Tzu, Confucius, The Dalai Lama, Mahatma Gandhi or a collection of Zen Stories.

I’m going to be a father very soon. It will be two girls – so you can imagine how excited I am.

I took some time to reflect and think about how I would like to be as a father. What kind of advice can I give to my kids to help them in their life? What insights did I make, sometimes painfully, sometimes with joy, that I want to pass on to my kids?

I always found that being inspired is the best state to be in. Being inspired leads to inspired action and has some kind of magic to it. It seems to go directly to the point. It always seems to be right.

The state of being inspired means to be in connection with your spirit, your higher self. It “whispers” you your way.

But how can you not feel the connection to your spirit?

One of the many good suggestions I got from you as a reply to my last newsletter was the topic of not feeling worthy enough. So I thought I’ll take the topic of worthiness and show that at the core, which is what matters, you are 100% worthy of everything you can dream of.

The feeling of not being good enough or even inadequate can act as a very self-limiting belief, which would be like a self-fulfilling prophecy: It (you) will always get in your own way. On the other side, knowing that you are enough for what you want in your life is as important for your success as it could get.

Many people consider art just some ornament in our lives. OK, it can be entertaining, too, but they don’t see it as a necessary ingredient that can sometimes even be life-saving. I know people from different countries who stayed sane after wars in their country only thanks to books they practically devoured, while bombs and shootings roared in the background. I know people whose day becomes bright after they hear a certain song. The moment I hear happy sounds of the music of the 80’s, my soul starts dancing.

After I posted about asking yourself the right questions I noticed how powerful questions really can be. They have the power to shift our way of thinking to a different level. Especially when you try to make a change in your life or you want to define some new goals to go after, coming up with strong questions helps a lot.

What is Happiness to You?

written by Myrko Thum at October 5, 2012 in Inspiration — 8 Comments

What is happiness to you? It means different things for different people. Still, as also the Dalai Lama said, everybody on this planet is seeking happiness. It is something that unites all of humanity. Happiness is something that you can’t really chase on it’s own. Happiness comes as a by-product of doing the right things in life. Having the right habits, the right thoughts, the right beliefs, the right decisions, the right actions, the right people around you…
