What Inspires You May Inspire Your Audience Inspiration is all around us: - The elation we feel about a loved one overcoming a life threatening illness.
- The encouragement we feel listening to the story of someone overcoming adversity.
- The optimism we feel reading about someone, who perhaps like you, started with nothing and built a multi-million dollar empire.
Whatever the source of inspiration may be, inspirational stories give us vision and scope. They motivate us to seek out ways to better ourselves and the lives of those around us. It's for these reasons that inspirational stories are such a great source for articles. The Inspirational Story Article Template First, take a trip down memory lane and brainstorm inspiring experiences, events, people, and even books that you've encountered in your life. It could be someone you know or maybe even a person/situation that you've read about. Next, select one of those inspirational stories. If the story isn't directly related to your niche, does it remind you of a particular topic, strategy, etc. in your niche? Create a list of relevant topics that correspond with your inspirational story and select the strongest topic. Finally, inspire your readers using the following template: - Introduction: Provide the reader with a short summary of the story. Create a WIIFM (what's in it for me) effect by illustrating how your hero of the story relates to the reader. Let's say you're writing about Dan, an inspirational friend, who climbed the highest of high mountains even though he has asthma. Introduce Dan, why his story is relevant to readers, and provide a quick overview of his story.
- Strategies/Tips: Extract tips or strategies from the story that benefit readers. Tie each of these tips or strategies into your niche by outlining them using a list format. Be as specific as possible when you're listing your tips. Compare a specific example from the inspirational story to a specific example of what occurs in your niche. In our previous example, we can pick out 3 universal traits (humor, perseverance, and support) that Dan exhibited in his tremendous feat and can easily apply them our niche.
- Conclusion: What's the moral of the story? Tie up any loose ends and provide a moral to the inspirational story and how it applies to your niche. If you can, let the reader know what your hero is doing today or what his or her next great feat will be.
