Inspiration has 3 core aspects
- Evocation: it is evoked spontaneously without intention.
- Transcendence: it involves a moment of clarity and awareness of new possibilities.
- Approach motivation: it pushes us to transmit, express, or actualize a new idea or vision.
Inspiration involves both being inspired by something and acting on that inspiration.

The role of inspiration
It opens us to new possibilities by allowing us to go beyond our ordinary experiences and limitations. Inspiration propels a person from apathy to possibility and transforms the way we perceive our own capabilities.
And the good news is that it can be activated, captured, and manipulated, and it has a major effect on important life outcomes.

Inspiration and positive affect
Inspiration is not the same as positive affect.
Inspiration involves elevated levels of positive affect and task involvement and lower levels of negative affects, but it is more meaningful and driven than a mere positive feeling.

Inspiration births creativity. Inspired people view themselves as more creative and show actual increases in self-ratings of creativity over time.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
