MANILA, Philippines – Inspired by last weekend’s Rappler hangout for Social Media Day, I wanted to do a quick list of the people who provide insightful information and quotable quotes on Twitter. Summing up their knowledge in a succinct way proves valuable in a time of 140-character attention spans.
As mentioned in the discussion, social media gives birth to more and more creators out there, but, as consumers, I think it’s up to us to navigate this cyber-landscape well. While the Internet is abundant with inspirational folk, I’ve narrowed down a list of my personal favorite 10 ‘tweeters,’ who have made sharing #inspiration and #motivation a lifestyle.
1. @yourzenlife – is a website created by Australian actresses Teresa Palmer (of “Warm Bodies”) and Phoebe Tonkin (of “Vampire Diaries”). Their website and Twitter account talk about topics that cater to your mind+soul, body, heart, eco-living, therapies and more; all contributed by passionate writers from all across the globe as well as from Teresa and Phoebe themselves.
What did you all do 2day to help someone else? Use each day as a chance to be warm & loving to others. Live in your goodness, live with love

2. @TonyRobbins – is a renowned motivational speaker and self-help author, who has written the bestsellers “Unlimited Power: The New Science of Personal Achievement” and “Awaken the Giant Within.” He is one of the most influential self-development leaders in our time, bringing the tools and strategies of self-development to a wider audience.

3. @gabbybernstein – a motivational speaker, life coach and author of “Spirit Junkie: A Radical Road to Discovering Self-Love and Miracles” and “May Cause Miracles: A 6-Week Kick-Start to Unlimited Happiness.” Oprah calls her, Marie Forleo and Mastin Kipp (see Tweeters below) as Thought Leaders for the next generation of spiritual thinkers. Gabrielle talks about spirituality and personal development through her blog, web series and Twitter account.
True change comes from daily repetition of new and empowering action. #SpiritJunkie

4. @marieforleo – a business and personal development expert, Marie has made her mark by helping others “create a business and life they love.” She is the author of the e-book “Make Every Man Want You: How to Be So Irresistible You’ll Barely Keep from Dating Yourself!,” and also hosts an advice web series and holds training programs that fuse business and life skills in one fresh package.

5. @thedailylove (website founded by @mastinkipp) – is an inspirational website that serves as “a place to love and be loved.” The website sends out daily mail and tweets about articles written by Mastin and a handful of contributors, at the same time dispensing impactful quotes about life, love and lessons.
RELATIONSHIPS ARE CONTAINERS FOR GROWTH. If you grow, learn and evolve from any relationship you're in or you've had, it's not a failure!

6. @dailyom – is a website started by Madisyn Taylor and her husband in 2004 that “nurtures the mind, body and spirit.” The short entries and tweets talk about meditation, relationships, nature and inner awareness that brings clarity to the mind.

7-8. @uncleRUSH & @revrunwisdom – are brothers Russell Simmons @uncleRush and Reverend Run @revrunwisdom (of hip- hop group Run-DMC.) Both an example of how hip-hop can be a force for good, instead of serving the usual stereotypes. The two have gone through the industry, checked their egos at the door and come out with a fuller awareness of life and shown what true success means to them today.
A true moneymaker shows enthusiasm for everything he does whether it's playing the background in a video or starring in it.
