CHAPTER 1:
How to Inspire the Whole World: The Hero’s Journey Method
In our first chapter, we will explore how to inspire yourself and, through that inspiration, uplift others. It might be challenging to accept the truth that unless we are inspired ourselves, we cannot inspire those around us, radiate our charisma, or lead others effectively. This is an undeniable reality.
Everything begins within us, and we arrive at the enchanting topic of “inspiration” through the understanding of our internal energies, strengths and resources. You may think that you don’t know what inspires others or that you have little to offer. But this couldn’t be further from the truth! Each individual, including you, possesses unique talents in which they excel and shine.
I encourage you to embrace this realization. From this moment forward, please never view your skills as insignificant or unworthy. There will always be someone who finds value in what you do. Whether you are skilled at cooking, sewing, painting, embroidering, or applying makeup, there will be people who aspire to master those same skills.
You may have already inferred that downplaying your talents can lead to their dissolution. If others recognize your exceptional abilities and you brush off their praise with indifference, what do you think will happen? Figuratively speaking, the Universe may shrug its shoulders and say, “If she doesn’t appreciate my gifts, I will bestow them upon another who values them more.”
People are remarkably accurate indicators of our worth.
Through the reflections and feedback of others, the Universe reveals to us what we are truly capable of.
Through the reflections of others, the Universe reveals the true extent of our potential.
Please pay attention to what others are telling you. I bring this up in the context of charisma and leadership in social media because we must first find inspiration in our hearts before we can inspire ourselves. Be your own biggest fan and embrace a vibrant, beautiful life.
We are part of a magnificent Universe.
When we embark on a journey of self-discovery, we often search for sources of inspiration within ourselves. It’s essential that we find them. Yet, what may hinder us in our search? Perhaps it’s the all-too-familiar obstacles of banal laziness and excessive rumination. I urge you: at this moment, resist the urge to delve too deeply into yourself. Avoid getting lost in the minutiae: “Sure, I excel in certain areas, but what’s the value if I struggle in others?” Let’s set those thoughts aside for now and echo the words of Scarlett O'Hara: “I’ll think about that tomorrow.” And indeed, you can choose to think about it tomorrow—if you wish.
When we discuss charisma on social media—oh, this is a profound moment!—we touch upon the influence of our thoughts. We can choose to focus on the love we feel for someone special, on how to dress beautifully, or what to prepare for dinner. Yet, for some reason, many gravitate toward thoughts that belittle them, that diminish their spirits. Why must we do this? We must strive to rise above! I’ll be honest: I’ve fallen into that trap as well. However, through sheer willpower, knowledge, and awareness, I consciously push those negative thoughts away, reminding myself, “Do you really want to dwell on this? There are a million other things in the world deserving of my attention—things that empower and elevate me! Only a strong person can lead others!”
