Conversations Magazine Feature: Author Susyn Reeve

by Cyrus Webb

So much of the world tells us what we can't do and what we won't be, but that doesn't mean that has to be the case. In her book THE INSPIRED LIFE author Susyn Reeve reminds us that our lives is just that: ours to live and to make the most of.

Throughout the book the author gives not only instances from her own life and journey but those of others as well who have learned what it means to live the life intended for them, and how all of us can do the same. There are also amazing quotes sprinkled throughout that give us motivation to get started today to make the changes we want to see in ourselves and the world. "If you want to get from point A to point B," one of the quotes says, "you can not avoid starting where you are." The message of that quote allows us to see that some things can't be avoided, especially if we hope to move forward. To help the reader, there are spaces in the book to identify the areas that are a "work in progress" for you, and identify what it will take in order to get where we want to go.

Part of the process is answer these questions: "What is my vision of an inspired life?" What is it we want that we don't have?" Only by answering these questions can be get to the heart of what it will take to make it happen. This means action. We have to move forward and then work in line with our vision to make it a reality.

The great thing that THE INSPIRED LIFE reminds us of is that we are not on this journey by ourselves. There are others out there who want us to be the best we can be and are willing to give us the encouragement it takes to get there.

THE INSPIRED LIFE gives you the catalyst to realize that the alternative of being inspired is really not what we want. There's nothing worse than being confined to a life that has no purpose. No one should be happy with that. Let's all move forward on the journey to the life intended for us, realizing that there is nothing better than bringing your best to each and every day.
