I find that my faith in God keeps me inspired and prayer really does help. I let my husband and my children know that I appreciate them. I also keep in touch with my extended family. And support my friends.
I look for positive things to say to others. If I have to tell my apartment manager that something needs fixing, I look to say something positive to her, as well. I don't want to just complain or tell her what is going wrong. So, I say a joke or tell her that I appreciate that she is doing a good job.
Also, I make sure I thank the maintenance man for fixing my faucet or whatever. I want him to feel appreciated for the work that he does because all work has value. So, I look for ways to appreciate what I have, and therefore look for joy and inspiration.

More people should try to be good with others. Or at least not treat them badly because they are upset from other reasons. It's quite inspiring, because when you make somebody feel comfortable, that person will share more with you and will also give a positive experience back.
For inspiration... I just watch the show of life. I always get surprised by something. There are touchy stories everywhere, just waiting to be discovered. And incredible places, and ideas, and works of art. They all inspire me to do what I do more open-minded, more creative.

Hi !
Yes, you are right faith in God and His blessings are foremost to keep us going.
We get a kind of inner strength when we tell ourselves that we should not worry much on any account as the great God is with us.
Your positive attitude towards others is praise-worthy. No one wants to hear the compaint but appreciation. If you are able to extract work through your positive approach, it is commendable.
Keep it up!
I also try to be positive and look at the brighter side of any situation and I always count my blessings to keep me going.

Creativity inspires me almost more than anything. However, I am with you on telling people how much they mean to me, and how good they are at what they do and how precious they are to me and to God. I also get inspired by the positive people that I get to meet online and in person as well.
