Does all action have to be inspired?

Does it? If so, what constitutes inspired action? I’m going to propose that all action does NOT have to be inspired action. Assuming that you know what you want, and yes, I know there are a lot of people who don’t know what they want, is the action you’re going to take bringing you closer to your goals or not? If not, then you need to rethink something, either your goals or your action. If so, then go for it! My husband and I have our own Wellness business in Springfield, MO. We have done A LOT to promote the business and not all of it was necessarily inspired. HOWEVER, even our uninspired action many times led us to inspired action, so was it wrong to take action? I feel that sometimes just doing SOMETHING can get things going, can get the creative juices flowing and inspiration will soon follow. Too many times I have heard too many excuses about not following one’s dreams because of not being inspired. Really? Inspiration is all around, if you look and listen. Inspiration is outside of the box so many of us limit ourselves to, if you’re not willing to look or even go outside, then it may be hard for you to find inspiration or worse, for inspiration to find you! If inspiration has to find you, don’t run away from it or hide from it. Dance with Inspiration, become a Co-Creator with the Divine that is within all. Look for Inspiration in all that you do, don’t just wait for Inspiration to find you, "if you build it, they will come." If you act and allow, inspiration will be right there with you. Sometimes a little faith is need with our works, but that’s for another post…

    I like your message–sometimes you just have to take the first step whether it's inspired or not. I just got back from Springfield, MO where I went to my cousin's wedding. Ate at the Bass Pro Shop there. Kinda fun!

    Thanks! A good friend of mine is a great example of this. She needed to get a job. She found one that she really wasn't excited about, but she took it because she needed the money. Guess what? In just a few months, she's now a team leader, is making great money, loves her job AND has met an amazing guy! Her "uninspired action" led to great things in her life!
