As I watch the sunrise, I notice the awakening of the natural environment. The beauty of nature inspires me to rise and shine even when I feel sad or uneasy.
Watching flowers open up to the rising sun is a reminder of the blessing of a new day. They teach me how to open my mind and face the possibilities in front of me.
I am also encouraged by the birds of the air. Each morning, their songs sound as enthusiastic as the day before because they are excited for a new day.
The morning display of nature teaches me that life is filled with second chances. Instead of giving up when I face an obstacle, I try a new approach. Sometimes those second shots are all it takes to achieve greatness.
The greenery of the grass and trees reminds me to consider my influences. I know that I am a product of what I surround myself with.
Just as the grass flourishes after being soaked by the rain, so it is with my vibrancy. I am enhanced when I surround myself with positive people. My influence comes from those with unwavering morals and a sense of consistency in their lives.
Today, I am happy to learn lessons from the natural environment. I am inspired when I observe the ease with which nature carries on along its course. I find that few lessons are more impactful than this one.
Self-Reflection Questions:
- Where else in nature am I able to find inspiration?
- What are some of the lessons from nature that I use in my work life?
- How does my appreciation of nature guide me to protect it?
