One of the finest places to look for inspiration is in books. However, there are many other areas as well. Like fictional characters, we can learn to alter and develop from them. With its continual tips on what to do and what not to do with anything from producing poetry to advancing your job, nonfiction isn’t far behind.
Motivational books with inspiring stories of success after failure, on the other hand, go a little farther, particularly for those who might use more hygge, a Danish word for that sense of coziness and satisfaction. So, without further ado, let’s look at several books and true success stories that can inspire you to make life changes for the better.
The American Spirit by David McCullough
David McCullough is the exception to the rule that most historians don’t come to mind when you think of famous writers. He has won every award there is, from the National Book Award to the Presidential Medal of Freedom. This deeply moving book is a collection of nearly thirty years worth of speeches he gave to everyone from members of Congress to college graduates and everyone in between. The American Spirit is smart, but it’s never stuffy. It’s also inspiring but not too sweet. It tells the interesting stories of doctors, artists, and performers from throughout the history of the United States. No matter where you’re from, you’ll be waving the red, white, and blue by the time you finish the book.
Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert
Elizabeth Gilbert is good at getting people to do what she wants. Her most famous book is Eat, Pray, Love, which interested many people in travel. But you don’t have to leave your house to do Big Magic, which is all about bringing out your creative side whenever you want. This is Gilbert’s no-nonsense, conversational love letter to the artist in you. So whether you want to write a book, paint a picture, or make music, Big Magic will help you reach your goals. It’s a party for art in every way. It is funny, real, educational, and uplifting.
Yogi Gut 3! By Brian T. Guthrie
Another great book full of inspiring real-life stories of people who have done well. “Yogi Gut3!” is a book that details Brian’s life. It was written with care and love to make people feel good. His words are full of feelings, and his adventures and misfortunes will make you feel many different things. There’s a lot more to Yogi Gut3! Then just a family. It’s a revelation: we look into the author’s scarred but happy life, go on a journey of bad luck, and feel the love of close friends and family. Brian tells his readers about love and sticking with something in a way that anyone can understand. He shows them that they can get through anything with a smile and faith in their hearts.
