Jordan Drayer and Dalia Ramahi

Sometimes despite all our positive thinking and celebrating small wins, we just come away feeling un-inspired, not excited by work or our dreams or anything. This would be a good time to reflect. How do the twins handle it?

Takeaways

  • It’s okay for goals to change and priorities to shift.  Sometimes we need that in order to reset or move forward again feeing inspired. 
  • Nothing happens overnight.  It’s okay to reinvent yourself as many times as you want regardless of your age.  Just be patient as you go through those changes.
  • When you’re feeling un-inspired, take a break.  Walk away from what you’re doing and take a pause.  Engage in an interest or hobby that lights you up instead for a little while.
  • Regardless of how un-inspired you may be feeling, cultivate the faith and belief in yourself to overcome any challenge or obstacle.  
  • Look at the things that other people have achieved and use that as evidence of what is possible for you.  It’s proof of what you too can accomplish.
  • Sometimes when you are in the middle of hardship or a problem, you can’t see your way through but trust in your next step and focus on that. That next step will lead you to the next and eventually you’ll find your way out of it. 
  • When worse comes to worst and you feel completely stuck, stop and do the thing that brings you the most joy instead.  You’ll thank yourself later when that spark of inspiration to lead you on to your next step reveals itself. 
  • When something doesn’t go your way, look at the way you react to it.  This is your trigger for how you normally deal with unfavorable or unpleasant situations.  You can absolutely change the way you react to it.
  • Healing, getting through past trauma and triggers will always be necessary.
  • Open up to someone you trust about your feelings of un-inspiration or other negative feelings.
