Bloom Where You Are Planted

You are where you are for a reason
What You Did Yesterday Got You Here
What You Do Today Will Get You
Where You Will Be Tomorrow

"Bloom where you are planted." 1 Corinthians 7:17-24

I had no idea that this statement was a bible verse. I did remember that it was Robert Schuller that I heard it from.
The idea behind it is why I have kicked off the new Enlightened Point Of View web site with it.

The sentiment is much akin to “Zen” thinking, ”What Is Is" If you are going to get your self out of the situation in which you currently find yourself. There is nowhere to start except where you are. What Is Is.

What I am experiencing is that I have read everything about manifesting a life that I would prefer, getting out of self sabotaging habits and doing the right thing. I have much more information than any one could ever need to cause their life to develop in the way
they would like for it to. I can even see for myself that I need not learn any more about How to start, What to do, or even When to do ii. The How of it is simple.

How, What and When
Don't try and make a list in your mind or otherwise of the things that need to be changed. Just monitor the actions that you take in life and see that every action is the correct action. You know every time you are on the verge of doing something you should not do. Occasionally you will just do "The Wrong Thing" out of reaction or habit usually your actions stem from your point of view.

Simply apologize to the universe and make a point of never acting (or speaking) without thinking first. The easiest way to accomplish that is to S-L-O-W D-O-W-N!! Make THINKING before acting a rule. Do everything you do
S-L-O-W-E-R. You have read and been told many times throughout your life to CHEW SLOWER. That is a great place to start. All that this is saying is BE HERE NOW, but you don't have to even burden yourself with that additional knowledge. That is the point. You need not know everything, just practice certain things. Figuring out what changes you need to make is not important. Be present (BE HERE NOW)
S-L-O-W D-O-W-N and THINK BEFORE YOU ACT. You always know what you should do. Like NIKI says JUST DO IT!

That is the How and What of it and the When is NOW.
I find that I have known what to do for some time. It is much easier to stay in the Box that I have created for myself and remain in my comfort zone, than to change my life. But what if I'm The Hundredth Monkey or can by changing my life inspire the Hundredth Monkey to change his life, there by change the world.

This may all seem silly to some of you, but probably not that many of you. If you weren't to some degree in tune with what I'm saying you wouldn't be reading or listening to this. I, on the other hand am right where I belong. I am a different person and the changes in me this last year are almost unbelievable. The changes in me in this last month are unbelievable. These changes of which I speak have come about gradually. I have learned to watch the coincidences in my life and have found that there is always a lesson to be learned in them.
I hope the things I say help to get you to think outside the Box a little                    To
What Is, Is.
And is a result of what you did yesterday.
Tomorrow will be a result of what you do today.
”The decisions we make in life are all made from some Point of View,
Slow down and examine your point of view,
It can be a deliberate choice.”
