If you wish to be inspired, it makes more sense to look backwards, rather than forwards.
When you’re feeling overwhelmed, the road ahead looks daunting and intimidating; it seems to go on forever.
However, if you change your view and look at how far you’ve come, you’ll notice the changes you’ve already made, inspiring you to stay the course.
Give yourself credit for the road already traveled, take a deep breath, congratulate yourself for your accomplishments, and then – and only then – face forward and take one more step boldly towards your goal.
