A big chunk of our community just returned from Stetson\u2019s Educating Advocacy Teachers (EATS) conference.\u00a0 If you have never been, you should go.\u00a0 I feel sad when I leave the conference but there is also another feeling I easily find within me.\u00a0 I leave feeling inspired.\u00a0 And because I left EATS feeling inspired, I decided to do some immediate research on the psychology of inspiration for this month\u2019s blog.\u00a0 \u00a0Being a writer and photographer has taught me something about myself:\u00a0 I need a muse.\u00a0 Something.\u00a0 Some trigger to spark the kindling of my desire to do something artistic.\u00a0 Being a professor of trial advocacy has taught me something else:\u00a0 If I want my students to get up and wow me with a tragic tale or a searing argument, they must first<\/em> be inspired to make one.\u00a0 That bare need to complete a school-day task won\u2019t suffice.<\/p>\n

I promise a point at the end of this story.\u00a0 Before my honeymoon, I had never been to the Rockies.\u00a0 I grew up on the leveled shores of Lake Erie where the sun spills its paint on a flat palette of gray water that trails away quickly from wherever you stand.\u00a0 There\u2019s very little contour to anything and even the clouds themselves often seem to lay like laundered sheets on the bed of the earth.\u00a0 I\u2019ve been a serious photographer for probably 16 years now, but on my honeymoon in the Rockies, I was as new to a camera as I was to my marriage\u2014two lifelong romances at their points of ignition.\u00a0 I had a few disposable cameras with me and through their lenses I began to see the world as light.\u00a0 This now seems to be the principal way in which my eyes work, but it began here.\u00a0 And it began because the bland, stretching waters of Lake Erie are lazy with good light.\u00a0 The Rockies, however, are not.\u00a0 They cut the light.\u00a0 Shape it.\u00a0 Bless it with shadows.\u00a0 Toss it around like discovered gold.\u00a0 If Lake Erie is a flat palette fading from view, the Rockies are the easel and the painted canvas.<\/p>\n

On the third or fourth day of harsh summer sunlight, storms rolled in and over the peaks, and the sawed teeth of the range tore them up and discarded them in the eastern skies. All this right when the sun paced low upon the ridges of their western edge, claiming in orange and pink light a gaudy victory from the sullen rains.\u00a0 On the diving mountains to the east I discovered, right there and for the first time, \u201cdappled light.\u201d\u00a0 Those deep-hued greens of mountain pines clutching the running shadows but giving them up to the racing pools of warm sunset, like a spring thaw.\u00a0 Filling the damp and moody pines with summer glow as if saving them from even thinking about winter.\u00a0 The sides of the mountains shimmered while the western skies crumbled, and the heat of the whole display burned off in me some blinkered view of the world that is a feature of the smallness of youth and its confining geography. \u00a0I clicked my camera\u2019s shutter and became a photographer.\u00a0 Sometimes, when I want my students to chase after an inspired word, I tell them to think about light.\u00a0 Not to search through the concept of it, but through all the archived memories of light they have.\u00a0 There is always at least one piece of light in there that layers the ethereal over the terrestrial, piercing our earthly vocations and turning us all, if even for a moment, into artists.<\/p>\n

Within the science of inspiration, we find a few of the precepts we would imagine to be there.\u00a0 Much of the literature on inspiration reaches back through the work of two of its most diligent researchers, Todd Thrash and Andrew Elliot.\u00a0 Their seminal work on the subject, and the subject of this month\u2019s blog, is an experiment-driven attempt to strip inspiration down to its bones and generalize a construct for a psychological view of inspiration.[1]<\/a>\u00a0 Through a host of experiments I couldn\u2019t begin to break down in our small space, the authors arrive at the three largest pieces of inspiration: evocation, motivation, and transcendence.[2]<\/a>\u00a0 I offer a broad summary of the research to our community so that we might better understand how our students work and how to target the inspiration that they need<\/em> in order to work well<\/em>.<\/p>\n

According to the authors, inspiration\u2019s three characteristics work as follows:<\/p>\n

Transcendence <\/em>refers to the fact that inspiration orients one toward something that is better or more important than one\u2019s usual concerns; one sees better possibilities.\u00a0 Evocation <\/em>refers to the fact that inspiration is evoked and unwilled; one does not feel directly responsible for becoming inspired.\u00a0 Finally, inspiration involves motivation <\/em>to express or make manifest that which is newly apprehended\u2026[3]<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Inspiration seems to operate like a bank account.\u00a0 There must be some kind of income before there can be any expenditure.\u00a0 The authors say inspiration is triggered \u201cby an epistemic event in which new or better possibilities are revealed by, or revealed in, an evocative stimulus object\u201d and they call this process \u201cillumination.\u201d[4]<\/a>\u00a0 However, not all inspiration produces that \u201cexpenditure\u201d toward some goal or object.\u00a0 Thus, the authors point out that one may feel inspired by the sight of the Grand Canyon but not then feel an inspiration to paint the Grand Canyon or write the next great western novel about northern Arizona.[5]<\/a>\u00a0 This suggests to us as teachers, coaches, and mentors that whatever we choose as inspiration for others needs to create motivation toward some outlet for the feeling of inspiration we\u2019ve just generated.\u00a0 And we need to be quick about it!\u00a0 The authors found that inspiration was most likely to produce a consequence (an expenditure!) on the day it occurred rather than the day after.[6]<\/a><\/p>\n

Does there seem to be a discernible process to inspiration?\u00a0 Yes, say the authors:<\/p>\n

We propose that inspiration is a hybrid construct that emerges from the juxtaposition of two component processes, one involving an appreciation of and an accommodation to an evocative object (hereafter referred to as being inspired by<\/em>), the other involving motivation to extend the qualities exemplified in the evocative object (hereafter referred to as being inspired to<\/em>).[7]<\/a><\/p>\n

I like the specifics the authors use here: Appreciating<\/em><\/strong> and accommodating whatever is evocative to us and then extending<\/em><\/strong> those qualities of that object. If I give my students an artful section of closing argument from Gerry Spence, I want them to see the genius of him pointing out that even if a company is located in countries X, Y, and Z, it will never speak language X, Y, and Z because those tongues are foreign to the only language that company actually does speak\u2014the language of money.\u00a0 I want them to extend the qualities of this metaphor into their own argument.\u00a0 They have to become memorable advocates.\u00a0 And don\u2019t we all say the same basic things to our trial advocacy students?\u00a0 \u201cWhen your jury deliberates, they should be quoting to each other the things you\u2019ve said to them as if they were creeds.\u201d<\/p>\n

I said at EATS that in this blog space I often toss out big questions like grenades and then run away from whatever landing they might have.\u00a0 I feel inspired to finish the same way here.\u00a0 So, I end with this: \u00a0Let\u2019s leave aside our students or mentees for a moment.\u00a0 Where can we<\/strong> find more inspirational income as we get closer to the expenditures of our school year?\u00a0 What can we find to be inspired by<\/em> that we may then be inspired to <\/em>extend into ourselves and then into our teaching or coaching?\u00a0 You\u2019ve already unlocked a memory, haven\u2019t you?\u00a0 Well, don\u2019t wait on it.\u00a0 Chase the light of inspiration before the day vanishes over its own glowing peaks.<\/p>\n
