What is Inspiration?
It depends on what you like to do.
Many people ask us what is inspiration? How do you define it? To us inspiration is doing what you love. It is unleashing the power of your mind to the vast creative potential alive in each one of us.
Our new book, The Inspired Life: Unleashing Your Mind's Capacity for Joy,addresses this issue by providing you with concepts stories and exercises to cultivate the inspired life of your dreams.

This expression of inspirational joy is often characterized by
