Every single thing around us could be an inspiration, if perceived in the right manner. Focus on the positives, and transform your surroundings into a giant motivating force. If that is hard, here are 10 people who inspire you always. These are people you look upto when in need of some inspiration.

1. Your parents

You may not have perfect parents, and they might not be super successful. But they gave you a part of themselves. The people who brought you up made you who you are. So, they will give you inspiration whenever you need.

2. Poor people

You might not have a lot, but be thankful for what you do have, because there are a lot of people out there who do not even have what you have. Thinking of poor people will make you feel good about your situation and motivate you to achieve a higher goal.

3. Your favorite celebrity

Who doesn’t want to be rich, famous and successful? When times are hard, look up to your hero, literally. If they can do it, so can you.

4. A baby

A child knows no prejudice, treats everyone equally, and does what he/she wants and wishes. You want someone inspiring? How about the pious hearted little angel?

5. Your favorite teacher

A teacher nurtures you, adds so much of value in you. Observe him/her. Learn how he/she puts your problems before his/her own, and tries to solve them even if he/she does not know how to.

6. Your favorite artist

Be it a singer, a painter, a dancer, or whoever. This person had the courage to pursue a career which does not guarantee stability, but the one which allowed him/her to express himself. If he/she can make it in spite of a career that provides no guarantee, why can’t you?

7. Your best friend

He/she listens to you, helps you out when you are in trouble, and always supports you. He/she is not perfect, but then neither are you. Yet, your best friend accepts and treats you like you are. If this is not inspiring, then what is?

8. Your idol

All of us have an idol whom we want to be like, who, for us, epitomizes perfection. Whenever in doubt, think about what your idol would have done, and let the inspiration flow.

9. Your soulmate

Love makes the world go round. It completes you, and thus inspires you. Look toward your loving partner if ever in need of inspiration.

10. Yourself

You can always inspire your own self. Dig deep, look within, concentrate, and you will find that you are your best teacher, and that you have all the inspiration you need.
