In times of inner uncertainty we can often look to certain examples in nature to lead us on our path of decision making. For example when we plant a garden of vegetables we trust that if we plant the seeds and nourish the soil and care for it in the way we know how then eventually the vegetables will pop out of the ground even if it seems like nothing is happening. Life can be a lot like this with opportunities. If we trust the process of nature and we care for ourselves in whatever way we know how, with exercise, healthy food, meditation etc and we plant the seed of opportunity with visualization and intention and action then eventually as if by magic we get surprised by spontaneous opportunities out of the blue. I Think the important part is that we look after our environment and treat ourselves the same way as we would treat the garden bed. The opportunities may come spontaneously but they tend to come more often when the environment is right.
