What Inspires You?
Posted on December 19th, 2007 by Kristen King
This week’s Apprentice-style challenge in the b5media Business Channel got me thinking about inspiration and how it’s played a role in my business. And when I started mulling over what inspires me, I realized that I owe all of you a big, big thank-you for everything you do to keep me going.
Your comments on the blog, your personal e-mails, and your delightful success stories warm me to the core. Thank you for your readership, your participation, and your encouragement. I would definitely not be where I am today if it weren’t for my blog readers.

The ability to do what I love doing is my biggest inspiration. Next to that, the need to do it in order to survive. :))
I get a kick to rub shoulders with the great in advertsing and writing. Yeah, survival too is the pull to excel. I like writing; it gives us a special platform, if not money, to flaunt my opinion!
Reading good writing inspires me, as do my children. They inspire me to approach new ideas in an out-of-the-box manner.
Those are good answers, guys! :)
Lori, I remember a conversation we had not too long ago about taking the option of failure off the table. I think it really helped me to stay focused, having been able to verbalize that!
