Inspiration

What do the Eiffel Tower, the sea and Table Mountain have in common?

All three of them can be a source of inspiration. For example the Eiffel Tower could inspire a piece of artwork, the sea could be the inspiration for the interior of a bedroom whilst Table Mountain could be the inspiration for a sculpture.

Inspiration is everywhere, in everything and everyone, you just have to be able to notice it. One of the best ways to do that is to look at everything with an open mind, and dare to wonder about the object, place or person. This is a fun activity (especially if you're driving, flying or just plain bored). Even then inspiration may not leap out at you and lead you to a great idea, because inspiration is on its own clock.  As infuriating as this is; you have to be patient. It will come when you least expect it and when it does you will feel amazing.
