What if…instead of trying to make something happen, you allowed it to happen from inspired action? You may need some examples of inspired action before you decide if that sounds too airy and too fairy for you. But if motivation isn’t getting you where you want to be, maybe going deeper inside is the answer. Albert Einstein said, “Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come.” Inspired action starts with just that kind of idea.

Often, your inspired idea doesn’t even feel like a thought. It feels like a gumball that just dropped into your brain. It might even feel like you didn’t think it but dictated the idea out of nowhere. A thought comes to you, and it just feels right. It’s not based on fear, “Have to do,” or “Should do.” It just feels…right. Unraveling The Truth: 8 Big and Common Myths About Motivation

Inspired Action is allowing yourself to act on that idea as you open to allowing it to take shape and show itself in your life. You take that action because it feels like the next right thing. You will find your authentic and genuine self is inspired and wired. You next notice that you know where to go, who to call, and what to do next.

Just Because It’s Light Doesn’t Make It Airy Fairy, Right?

Yeah, we know…airy and fairy. However, you’ve already experienced it. Sometime in life, we have all had an idea that came at the best possible time. You acted on it because you couldn’t imagine doing anything else. That is inspired action. The next thing you knew, you were running into the right people to help, finding the right pieces and the right place to get it to happen.

It’s happened to us all, even if on a tiny scale. So, how do you help inspired action come to you more often? Since inspired action is not about pushing and grinding, how do you know when you are coming from inspired action instead? Here are some examples of inspired action.

Examples Of Inspired Action #1- You Are Very Clear About What You Want To Manifest Or Create But Also Not Attached To The Details.

Clarity is a main ingredient in inspired action. When you are clear on what you want to be, do, and have, you make room for that inspired idea. Once the inspired idea gets planted, you are ready for the next step. That step IS inspired action but can only come if you are clear about what you intend.

Pay attention! Be open to such a thing happening and allow it. How many good ideas have you had that you poo-pood away? Then, later, saw someone else have the same idea and follow through to their clear manifestation of success. Unraveling The Truth: 8 Big and Common Myths About Motivation

So once you are clear, don’t talk yourself out of the inspired action you have felt inspired to do. Then stay out of your way and don’t get too attached to the details. What if you are inspired to take action that will create an outcome even better than what you intended? Don’t worry. You won’t have to think about this much. You will just feel like “this idea” and “this action” is just what needs to happen next.

Examples Of Inspired Action #2- You Feel More Alive When You Think About Doing Something In The Name Of Inspiration Instead Of Obligation.

A great example of inspired action is how you feel when it happens. Work doesn’t feel like work. The effort feels effortless. When you are coming from a place of inspired action, you are excited to get started. Then, you are excited to get started again on the next day.

There is a difference in doing something for inspiration instead of obligation. Regardless of the idea, it feels like your own creation, much like an artist feels. Time moves differently when you are working on something in inspired action.

Examples Of Inspired Action #3- You Feel A Little Afraid, But This Still Just Feels Right.

Motivational Teacher Joe Vitale says, “A goal should scare you a little and excite you a lot.” That sounds right to us, too. When an inspired action takes shape, the unknown is still a factor. If that creates a little bit of fear…let it. You’re human, and that is what any human feels. We don’t fear change. We fear the unknown, but that is where the magic happens.

We suggest you keep as many reminders of that fact as you can. Leave sticky notes for yourself to remind you that it might feel scary but that could also mean something wonderful is about to happen. Scatter good vibes all over your house. We love these:

 

You might feel some fear when an inspired idea is sprouting as an inspired action. However, you won’t be able to stand the thought of not going forward with the action you feel inspired to do. It will just feel so right that you can’t imagine not doing it or not being part of it.  Unraveling The Truth: 8 Big and Common Myths About Motivation
