Is the environment you live in inspiring?

Einstein said that he believed that inspiration and imagination is more important than knowledge.  There were many who disagreed with him at that time yet today his name is synonymous with the title of genius.  You do not have to be a genius to use your imagination but you do have to be a curious and open-minded person who asks questions and seeks answers. 

What kind of environment do you surround yourself in?  Is it warm and inviting –leaving room for quiet time and space for introspection or is it a place where chaos and clutter prevail?  Our environment actually sets the mood and direction in which our lives unfold and blossom or in which they become dis-oriented and disorganized.

You may not realize it now but it is all about creating the right home environment and/or work environment where you can prosper and thrive.  When you change your thinking and perception about something, you become more enlightened and innovative.  Your creative and imaginative powers flow when you flow in your life.  So what is flow and what does that mean?  For me, I define flow as being in balance.  In other words, it is a mental state in which your challenges and skills are equally matched as defined by the free encyclopedia and you remain in balance even when you feel defeated.  We can never forget that in order to stay focused and in balance requires that you stay completely absorbed with the process that gets you to achieve your highest. 

If you find that the life is being sucked out of you because of negative and critical interaction, then you are possibly in the wrong place and in the wrong environment.  Each one of us evolves daily and at the same time we learn that this change that is taking place is materializing because we are adapting to what ever it is that is necessary for our transformation and growth. 

Let’s face it—you /me cannot feel or experience an inspiring lifestyle if we are not living in the right environment or in the right place—emotionally—physically or mentally.  It is important for each one of us to capture the right environment that will fill our heart and soul to the fullest.  So my dear friends—isn’t it time to be in the flow?

Stay motivated—discipline your mental state and emerge your thoughts and feelings only on the positive side of life.  Give full  attention to what you are hoping to accomplish and continue to stay in the flow.  That is the secret to your success.  You can achieve it.
