Mahen’s Alphabet of Emotional Intelligence – I

The Next Letter

We started off the year sharing my father’s work, an alphabet he was working on at the time of his passing. At the end of 2024, we found his complete work and are releasing each letter throughout the year. This week, we share the next letter.

 

I– Inspiration – “The only way to do great work is to love what you do.” – Steve Jobs

Without a reason, without motivation, nothing happens. If we don’t know ‘why’ to do something, if we don’t have a reason to do it, then we often don’t do it.  In the big picture of human life, Inspiration is like a powerful engine that pushes us to do great things, overcome tough situations, and discover their purpose. It’s like a guiding light that sparks excitement and determination in us to chase after our dreams without giving up. Throughout history, many amazing people have said that inspiration played a huge role in their success. Whether it came from important people, personal moments, or big events, inspiration has this special ability to change lives. Some may argue that inspiration is momentary and that it alone cannot guarantee success. While it is true that inspiration must be together with dedication and hard work.

 

Inspiration serves as the initial spark, the fuel that propels us forward on our journey towards success.

Inspiration is a guiding force, shaping our values, beliefs, and actions. It gives us the courage to pursue our dreams, to take risks, and to persevere when the going gets tough.

Inspirational stories of success over adversity remind us of the resilience of the human spirit and its capacity to bring about positive change.

Inspirational stories of people overcoming tough times remind us how strong we can be and how much good we can do

In a world where there’s a lot of negativities, feeling Inspired gives us hope. It brings people together, no matter where they’re from or what they believe.

In Summary:  Inspiration is super powerful. It can change lives and make the world better. When we feel inspired, we can conquer tough stuff and aim for big goals. It helps us figure out who we are and become better. By staying inspired, we not only make our own lives better but also make the world nicer and more connected. Let’s see Inspiration as a way to make our future awesome, full of hope and achieving our dreams. When we get Inspiration we inspire others, it can create a chain reaction, making whole communities kinder and stronger. So, let’s welcome the “I” Inspiration spirit and not be afraid to dream, make things, and motivate others.

The letter “I” holds a profound spiritual significance as the ninth letter of the alphabet. It serves as a symbol of the self, individuality, and personal Inspiration.

 

Stay tuned for letter J
