What do you see in this picture? Do you see a poor, struggling seedling trying to survive in an inhospitable environment?<\/p>\n
Or do you see hope for new life, a new life that’s defying the odds and charting a new path in uncertain terrain?<\/p>\n
Focus~perspective~is everything. Remember, WE create our reality. So if you see a struggling-to-survive seedling in this pic, you may be invoking fear, anxiety, pity. Perhaps frustration. And those are definitely not emotions you want to create anything with.<\/p>\n If you see hope, a you-can-do-it attitude, then you are invoking optimism, perseverance, faith.
