Your Life is Like an Acorn

Rather than see your dream life as "out there" somewhere else in time
and space – and something you have to strive to reach or achieve, see
yourself and your desired life like an acorn – that life is already
inside you, emerging and evolving, and it's inevitable that you will
become that. Like the acorn, it's inevitable that it will become an
oak tree – the entire tree is already inside it.
