Ivanka Trump is finding mid-week inspiration in one of her favorite movies. The daughter of Donald Trump has shared some encouraging words for her followers, finding some inspiration from one of Robin Williams' most famous movies.

The movie follows an English teacher who inspired his students by teaching them poetry, with the scene highlighted showing Williams sharing one of his lectures in class, with his students crowding over him in attention.
"We don't read and write poetry because it's cute," he says in the film. "We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race and the human race is filled with passion."
Ivanka added her own thoughts, writing over the reel, "Go forth today and contribute your verse! Happy Wednesday."

Over the past years, Ivanka has shared photos of her photography and has captioned some of her posts with poems that appear to have been written.
"Standing at the ocean's edge, I let the waves wash over me, feeling the wild pulse of the Earth," she wrote in one of her posts. "The sunlight slips through the branches, casting a tender, golden glow. As the trees whisper and hum their old-time secrets, soft and low."
She also appears to have developed an interest in painting, sharing a photo of a painting she did on an easel depicting one of the horses on the ranch that she and her family spent some time in over the summer.

While Ivanka has made it clear that she no longer wants to play a part in politics, she's working behind an event that's currently being organized in the White House.
The event is related to UFC and involves Dana White, the CEO of the sports organization.
"When (Trump) called me and asked me to do it, he said, ‘I want Ivanka in the middle of this,’" said White on "CBS Mornings."
"So Ivanka reached out to me, and her and I started talking about the possibilities, where it would be and, you know, I put together all the renderings."
