Don’t be inspired, be an inspiration!

by Keith Jones - May 16, 2023

Most self-improvement books look to inspire you to be a better person (there’s a clue in the genre title!)

I have many of them on my bookshelves!

They inspire you to be a better…

Person…

Manager…

Worker…

Partner…

The list goes on!

Because the vast majority of these books are about self-improvement, they tend to create self-centred people…

People more interested in…

Their own success rather than helping others to succeed…

Increasing their own profits at the expense of others…

Looking to be better than their work colleagues…

Looking to shine in front of their team…

Again, the list goes on!

The reality is, the Self-help industry has created a society where people are more interested in themselves and how they progress, rather than a world in which we focus on developing others.

The coaching industry is a perfect example…

“Become a coach and help others” is the sentiment behind most coaching course advertising.

Followed by, “And make a great living out of it, too!”

So, we’ve ended up with many, many coaches more focussed on profits than becoming the best coach they can in order to help others.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying people shouldn’t make a very good living out of what they do…

What I’m saying, is that shouldn’t just come from being the best you can at what you do…

But, perhaps more importantly, by inspiring others to be the best they can…

Even if they’re your work-colleagues…

Or members of your team.

So please…

Don’t just read this and not take action.

Find a way to start inspiring the people around you…

Find ways to help those you know become better people…

Help them when they’re struggling…

Help them when they’re lost…

And don’t look for something in return.

To finish, a couple of things to contemplate…

  • How much better would your business / workplace/ team be, if everyone concentrated on helping each other improve, instead of competing to be the best?
  • How much better would you family relationships be, if everyone supported and helped each other, instead of always having to be right?

If this short post inspires you to go and inspire someone else to be better at what they do…

Then job done!

So, go and be inspirational…

You have it within you…

And let me know how it goes, in the comments below.
