Inspiration is everywhere and as with everything in life it's what keeps us motivated. I read a wonderful piece in the New York Times this weekend about an author who sells his books in the subways. His goal is to sell thirty-five copies a day of his book "Street Talk" and most days he reaches that number.
But even more important than that, his writing has a message... he tells the story of his redemption from drugs on the street, to prison to turning his life around, and how to make it happen. He says that one of the main benefits to selling his story on the subway is making new friends while touching their lives and influencing them in ways too numerous to name.
