The Inspirer Manifesto

I live at life’s edge for it is where inspiration is created.

There is no map to life’s edge only a compass of curiosity that points the way.

I am not afraid to suffer, for on the other side of suffering is the edge of my life.

I am a creator who sees beauty in the world.

I live my life.

I love my life.

My goal is to perfect my life.

I am a warrior fighting against fear, doubt and self-pity in all their forms, both within and forced on from without.

I war against the takers, the looters of inspiration.

I am a participant in life and never its spectator.

I understand that I am given 3 choices in every moment:

I can quit and end my life,

I can surrender and become a spectator,

or I can fight to perfect my life.

Every morning I ask:

“Today will I be better?”

And every night I ask:

“I have lived my whole life to become the person I am today, was it worth it?”

I believe that courage is the engine of life and inspiration is its fuel.

I believe that the most courageous thing I can ever do is to honestly tell my story and give my life away, inspiring others to find their courage and journey to the edge of their life.

And by inspiring others I become the greatest thing one can ever hope to become… an inspirer.
