What is My Motivation?
What is my motivation?
This is not just a question an actor asks of their director…it is a question about life. What is it that motivates me to do the things I do?
I am a writer and editor. Writing is a craft I have been working on since I was nine years old, and truly focused on for about twenty years now. My first editor taught me a tremendous amount about not just editing, but writing to its core, which is why I currently work as a professional editor.
The majority of my writing these days is this blog. Three times a week, I present Positivity, Pathwalking and Crossing the Bridges. All three of these topics feed into the overall message of this blog…Consciousness creates reality.
That is my motivation. Striving to better consciously create my reality, and manifest the life I know is mine to be had.
So what exactly does that mean?
The reality we live in is an illusion that we create for ourselves. As I wrote previously, “Reality is the creation of your consciousness. My perception of reality is not yours, but we both exist within the same confines of the world upon which our core spirit energy, these luminous beings, exist in these bodies”
I want to live in a better reality…but not just for myself. And that is what my motivation is. This is something I apply not only to these blogs, but to all of my writing.
My motivation is to inspire
I want to do whatever I can to make this world a better place. All of us deserve to have happiness, love, joy, support, and peace. This is an abundant universe we live in. The lack and scarcity of the world and from our leaders is manifested by individuals seeking power in the collective consciousness. You and I get swept up in it, and people forget that they are empowered to choose for themselves.
These words are my journey, the bridges I cross as I strive to consciously create my reality and find what makes me feel joyful and alive. It is my hope that I inspire you to seek your own reality, and to manifest for yourself things that are worthy and deserving of you.
Note the phrasing I used. Worthy and deserving OF YOU, not the other way around. You deserve and are worthy of an amazing, happy, fulfilling life. Despite what the outside world and our society may present, you and I deserve to have awesomeness in our lives. We can and should have the things that make us feel empowered, and like we can face anything that comes our way.
Even when I work on fiction writing, my motivation is to inspire the imagination. I have so, so many stories in my head. I do not give enough time and energy to working on these things as I should. Whole worlds and numerous characters exist in my brain that really need to find their way to a screen or page.
Creative motivation
One of the reasons I write this stuff is because I want to excite my reader to expand their viewpoint, see worlds of imagination where reality is different from our own. My motivation is to get more people to be creative.
I believe that every single person has some form of creativity within them. Might be an art, or writing, or cooking, or sewing, playing an instrument or singing, improvisation, debate, exercise, or what-have-you. But everyone has something creative inside of them.
If I can help bring that out, I believe that we can use our creativity to improve the world around us. We can in turn inspire and motivate others to make the effort, and we can change individual realities for the better. When each of us individually improves, in turn we can change the collective consciousness, and better the whole world.
Yes, I recognize that this may come across as very pie-in-the-sky, optimistic bullshit. However, I prefer to believe that we can change things, and not that this is how it is and we have to just accept it. No, I know that we are capable of creating better. I’ve manifested it before…and I know that I can do it again.
And so can you.
Everyday motivation
We all have bad days. There are difficulties and struggles both from within and without, which we may or may not have control over. But we also have tools we can use to wrest back our control over our lives. Gratitude, living in the now and being more aware of our conscious thoughts, feelings, and actions, can be powerful creators.
My ultimate motivation is to be the best me that I can be. It is my hope that in working to do so, I can inspire and maybe motivate YOU to be the best you that you can be. Together, we can make this world a better place for everyone in it. That is a worthwhile endeavor.
Onwards and forwards. As always, thank you for crossing the bridges between my worlds with me.
