Inspiration = New
To get inspired means to do something different
It’s that simple
You want inspiration but you want to keep your ways
That’s how most people go about begging for inspiration
It’s an inherent paradox
You want to keep it the same because of the comfort and validation you find in an established practice, established identity
But the very fact that it is so established is what makes is dull, uncreative, un-innovative, uninspiring…
You can look all day for inspiration — but for as long as it’s coming from this place of attachment to your method, standards, comfort zone, identity — you will be uninspired. Or half-inspired.
You must take the leap and let go of all that old baggage. Go do something new and be a beginner again, be clueless again. And be inspired again
As long as you keep your old ways — you also keep your old state.
If you’re currently uninspired — you will by definition remain uninspired — for as long as you don’t change. Don’t change yourself, your ways…
There really is nothing fanciful about THE INSPIRATION.
The problem is you, and how fucking boring you are, how desperately reliant on your ways and methods and routines and identities.
Go ahead and do something new
Like a CHILD
Do you reckon children suffer from UNINSPIREDNESS?
Be a child again
Be inspired again
