Eliminating the photo spots
The inspiration we derive from the memories wrapped up in the photo spots of life is invaluable as we move towards significance. Life has its ups. Life has its downs. Life has its great moments and life has its challenges. Life is like that. You’re going to experience this. I’m going to experience this. Because we are alive and human, we will experience the moments of great happiness and exhilaration, and we will also experience the dark times of obstruction and difficulty.
So when the challenges of life come, where do we go? Where is our place of inspiration? Sometimes it’s a place with a physical location. Sometimes it’s a place in our mind. And yet, there are a lot of people who have never figured out a place where they can go.
I don’t know where you will go for inspiration. Maybe it’s a book. Maybe it’s an audio in some format. Maybe it’s a memory of a victory won. What I know is this: if you don’t have a place of inspiration to go to, you have a serious roadblock. Life has lots of “stuff” to throw in your pathway. Significance is found in the midst of the “stuff” of life. So take the time to crystallize the inspirational photo spots along the way, and don’t forget to revisit them frequently.
