This post is my ongoing daily participation in
's fantastic Index4Index Initiative. Read his post, and get yourself involved!
Today's Index4Index Daily Inspired Motivation is about dancing in the potent sweet spot between idealism and pragmatism, which is where our ideals and hopes meet practical, grounded action. One without the other simply does not work, like a bird with one wing...it will go nowhere.
"Pure pragmatism can't imagine a bold future. Pure idealism can't get anything done. It's the delicate blend of both that drives innovation."
-Simon Sinek
Inspired action is where our visionary ieals meet grounded practicality, which allows us to make them real in our lives and in the greater world. Such inspired action is beginning where we are, with what we have available, and moving forward toward our visionary ideals with it!
If we are not willing to move through the inner discomfort and resistance to connecting our ideals and visions with practical actions and steps to ground them into reality, then they will remain forever aloft in the ethers, never touching earth. If we truly want our dreams to be more than just dreams, we need to get over ourselves, roll up our sleeves (if we have sleeves that is!), and dive into the pragmatic and practical decisions and steps of bringing them into reality!
Do you have a big dream or vision? Do you really want to experience it in your life? Then break it down into small action steps to take every day to make it real! Bring those beautiful dreams and ideals down to earth, as I'd say we could really use them now more than ever! It's time to bring heaven to earth, people!
Remember, dear friends, that we are all in this together, that we rise by lifting others, and that together we thrive, so onward and upward, joyfully together! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙
