Aloha, In this episode of the Fashionable Finance Podcast,
I talk about the “Unusual Things That Inspire You”, just
by looking at something and then you get that spark of
inspiration.  Sometimes it’s the most unusual things and
sometimes it’s the most unusual places and or places that
inspires you.

I really love teaching and sharing the things that I know and
have done.  I’m also all about helping you learn and grow
and to be able to find joy and creativity in everything you do.
You know, there’s always so many things to learn about in
life and I think that’s great, so I want to be part of your
world of learning and I want to teach you the things that
I’ve taught other people.

Have you ever looked around and saw something that has been
there for a very long time,but then for
that moment you see it in
a whole different light for some reason.  It could be something
really small
like a decorative vase or a potted plant, maybe even
a decorative pen and pencil holder.

That’s what happened to me as I was sitting here at my computer
thinking about things and as I was
thinking my eyes seemed to
have some sort of mind of its own and started to wander around
the room
slowly looking at the things that are around me as if it
everything was new.  

Then all of a sudden you get a spark of inspiration just at that
moment that you set your eyes 
on one item almost as if you
were looking at it for the first time.


For some reason you can’t take your eyes off of it, your gaze
seems to be locked in at that moment
as you study with great
interest all the little details and colors that you haven’t seen
before.  All at the
same time thinking to yourself ‘why only now
do I see the things that I see’ or ‘why only now is it
interesting
to me’.

I think that in our moments of deep and quiet thinking or pondering
are we able to be inspired and see
things in a whole new way
like when you flip on a light switch in a room, everything comes
alive not only
for our eyes but for our heart and mind to see as well.

Inspiration comes in many forms and in many ways.  For everyone
it’s very different, sometimes it’s the
unusual things that inspire us
and sometimes it’s at the most unusual time too!  It’s a good idea
to make
a mental note (or a physical note if you are someone that
needs to write things down) of the item/s,
time of day and even
the location of something that has set your mind in motion of
inspiration
.

I invite you to listen to this episode and see if you’ve
experienced inspiration from unusual things and/or
unusual places.

Please share this podcast with anyone that you know of
who will benefit from the things that are in each episode.
