Many people of course do this, but just reading his book and learning more about him, plus being able to enjoy the stuff he has done that he mentioned along the way in his book inspires me to believe I can be who I want to be if I put the hard yards in.

One of my friends is having chemo for breast cancer, she totally inspires me and if I could be half as strong as she is then that would be amazing.

Actually one or two BE members inspire me as well, Glittababe and Tiddlypom - for doing something that they love and making a living out of it.

Lucky Tiddlypom and Glittababe. I'm sorry I have missed the info. What do they make a living from? To make a living doing something you love is certainly inspiring.

at the moment Emelems :) Seriously she is seriously motivating me to be who I am rather than forget it. She is very good at taking a situation and riding with it and its positive to be around

In my life I have been very lucky to have so many great inspirations. My life experiences, the bad more than the good, made me very strong though so when you have inner strength it helps you to act on the inspirations you receive

I draw inspiration from everywhere, all people, all the time... I suck it in, digest and use, but really, it's all about mindset... You can't make yourself do something you don't want to do. Once you 'get it' ... that's when it all starts clicking with you... that's when the 'universe' starts working with you and you it. You won't get it until you get it.
