Who do you want to inspire?

I want to inspire.
  • Alcoholics
  • People who are depressed
  • Anyone who has ever thought of suicide
  • Homosexuals or other segregated groups
  • Others with gynochemastia
  • Entreprenuers

That's my list.

Here's why.

I want to inspire alcoholics because my mom and dad are both alcoholics. I know what it's like to be in the shoes of the victims in this scenario and that's a big reason I don't drink regularly or even occassionally.

I want to inspire people who are depressed because I suffer from depression myself and know what it's like to feel like there's no hope. But I also know that there is hope and things get better.

I want to inspire anyone who has ever thought of suicide because I myself have been there and I've had my own brother and aunt both commit suicide in the last few years. I've also had one of my friends commit suicide (which I rarely talk about).

I want to inspire homosexuals or anyone that is segregated, not because I'm a homosexual, but because I know what it's like to be bullied and pushed into believing you aren't normal. I hate when people joke someone just because of their personal approach to their own life. People joke me all the time asking me if I'm gay and although I'm not, I usually don't even answer because I don't support their views.

I want to inspire people who have gynochemastia because I myself have had it since I was 13, likely from stopping abruptly on medications that I was receiving for being too hyper. It made me feel like an outcast, but I know life doesn't have to be that way.

I want to inspire entreprenuers, because I know that anyone and everyone can be whoever they want to be in life, especially if their goal is to be the best "them" they can be. Everyone has opportunities presented in front of themselves, but entreprenuers are the ones who really take action and want to succeed and I relate to them.

So.

    If I had to sum it up into one group, I'd say that I want to help people who are frustrated.

    Frustrated with their health.
    Frustrated with their relationships.
    Frustrated with their business or job.

    Every year, I learn more and more that simplicity is key- less is more. Yet every year, the world gets more complex, and humans tend to make our lives more complex than they need to be.

      There's a tremendous amount of wisdom in this tiny statement... Ironically, most others will glance over it as if it means nothing, or at least until they read my response to your statement and give it a second, deeper consideration.

    I like to inspire less motivated people, drunkards, gamblers, drug users and drug syndicates.

    I want to inspire anybody who gives a damn about their own life.

    Too many people think they have all the answers, that they never need any help, support, or insights. Too many people don't WANT to improve themselves; they'd rather just wallow in self-pity, misery, and fear.

    I've changed lives dramatically, including stopping several suicides... but there were some who I couldn't help, no matter how hard I tried, and it was MADDENING to me. I blamed myself for not being good enough, for not knowing the "secret" things that I needed to say in order to get them to turn their lives around!

    I've discovered something though. The people who we inspire WANT to be inspired. The people we motivate WANT to be motivated. The people who we improve WANT to be improved.

    We can't help somebody who doesn't want help. I found this out the hard way, and I took on ALL responsibility for other's refusal to accept any form of help. This is never the right thing to do, as all we can do is our very, very best, but we can't control others and make decisions for them.

    So as I mentioned, I want to inspire anybody and everybody who cares about their own life in any way. Whoever has an ear to lend and a heart that's willing to change; I'm always here to help.

    I would inspire anyone who is willing to be inspired. There will be people who you want to push and succeed, but do not put in the effort, but there will also be those that are go getters the will be inspired by your ideas to because just as successful as you.

    I would like to inspire:

    1) Obese. I used to be just obese and I know how it feels to be call "fat-so." (and many other names)

    2) "slow-learner." Slow learner doesn't mean stupid, it's just that different people have different ways of learning things.

    3) Smokers. I used to smoke a lot. I started smoking at age 14 but Thank God I'm able to quit at 20. It's possible to quit.

    And many more Basically, I would like to inspire anyone who's willing to be inspired.

    Well, I believe Inspiration and positive energy is contagious.
    And yes, I'm spreading inspiration via my blog everyday =)

    Who do I want to inspire?
    My answer is similar to Educatic Mind, to inspire those who are still willing to accept things in their life.

    That is quite personal. You are a really positive individual, Justin!

    Who I want to inspire:
    Humans of all ages, especially teens and young adults.
    Maybe one day, space aliens!

    What I want to inspire:
    A desire for peace.
    A willingness to create peace.
    A desire to conduct high-risk research.
    The drive and ability to see and experience prosperity (and more than just material prosperity).

    That's all I can think of about this right now.

      I would like to inspire the uninspired so that they could understand that you can achieve anything you want in life if you have the desire, passion and a plan on how to get there. And if they don't they get what they paid for. I have been through tremendous times in my life when I could have just given up because it is easy to do that sometimes. But if you don't feel good about yourself then no one else will. Only you can make you smile, only you can determine what you want in life, only you can love your wife and your kids, only you can say thank you and please, only you can stop drinking, only you can lose weight. But sometimes there can be that one inspirational person that explains something in such a way that you understand that can change your life forever. But ultimately you always have to be on the look out for those opportunities to change and then embrace them and ultimately do something about it. Complaining is for people that have not found themselves or their future. Look deep inside and find it because life is so much more fun when you do

        My family and anyone else I can touch. I come from a long lineage of working class people that even in old age had to work. At the moment they don't see the significance of what I do (though oddly enough they don't question that i don't have a normal job) but I think if more people considered it they would jump on it.

    I want to inspire those people who suffer from lack of confidence. This kind of people are badly in need of inspiration. They can easily change their life by getting a bit words of hope.
