Allow yourself to be inspired
An Expert is never too busy to be inspired.
Inspiration results in great ideas and success (in life) is based on the realisation of these great ideas. Without it you (as an expert) are setting yourself up to fail – in an unspectacular fashion – from the start.
As Experts we need to be able to see beyond the stress and feelings associated with being overworked. We need to move past the vision-clouding comfort zone to a place where we allow inspiration to appear in our lives.
This requires that we undergo a significant mindset shift. To achieve this we need to:
Mute the extras
Shut out all the extras. Inspiration doesn’t play nice. It doesn’t work when you’re stressed, overworked or short of time. Just stop and the inspiration will find you.
Be in awe
Teach themselves how to sit back in awe. The surrounding world is packed full of inspiration. If you can just get over yourself, for long enough, you’ll see it. It’s unexpected, unplanned and (often) completely random.
Just look a little closer, it’s right there!
