   We all need that power booster a good dose of inspiration gives us. What or who instills you with the will-power to surge onwards even when faced with seemingly insurmountable challenges?

   My wife and dad. My wife because I always want to do my best around her and my dad because he has taught wisdom and I strive to use the teachings he has passed to me everyday.

      Thanks yeagerinvestments. I hear ya. My wife also inspires me to be the greatest I can be. Now that I have a son (2 months) i'm even more pumped and hungrier than ever to march on and be successful. The other person is my mother because she is great!

   My son Jaxon is a Champion in my life. He is 12 years old and has ADHD and a Learning Disability. He is by far the most honest sincere loving person I know. Every day he is excited to go to school and see what the day holds for him. Even his teachers tell me how wonderful his passion for learning is. They tell me that they wish kids who had an easyer time of learning met school with the same gusto.  He has the desire to learn and grow. Because I understand how difficult his life is and because I see firsthand the enthusiasm he projects, he is someone who really inspires me.

      Thanks mommahottness. Yes, I can see how he would inspire you. A great boy you have there! That's kind of why my mother inspires me so much. She went through hell to bring her kids up but was always as solid as a rock. Her kids always came first.

   I have to say my inspiration is Jesus Christ. When my mom was alive she would encourage me with her advice but now that she has gone home to glory I get from reading my bible and mostly from praying to Jesus for His help and guidance.
   
   My husband is my blessing as well I can go to him and he will give me a word to let me know it's okay we are going to make it or there are those times when he wraps his loving arms around me and tell me things are going to be good we are going to make it...

      Ah, yes God is most definitely a profoundly inspirational figure for many of us. Faith is important, whether that faith be in God or just in goodness in general.
      
      You have a good husband. It's nice being married. Always someone there to support you.

   My Grandma. As a young boy growing up she would always take me here there and everywhere, especially for sporting purposes. She introduced me to athletics and swimming where I would compete for many years. This instilled a passion for sport and exercise at a young age, which I still maintain today. It has contributed to teaching me how to lead a healthy lifestyle.
   
   Not only that, but she is the most friendly and happy person I know! She can turn a negative into a positive and doesnt really have a bad thing to say about anyone or anything! She runs marathons, goes trekking in the Himalayas, has recently been hiked the Inca trail and is currently planning another tour, god knows where! Truly inspirational.
   
   When I grow up grandma, I wanna be just like you.
