Planting positive seeds

"If you see your path laid out in front of you -- Step one, Step two, Step three --  you only know one thing... it is not your path. Your path is created in the moment of action. If you can see it laid out in front of you, you can be sure it is someone else's path. That is why you see it so clearly."  -- Joseph Campbell
Since everyone is unique, apparently this means that everyone must make their own, unique way through their life. You should never be able to see your completed path because it is only determined by you as you travel along. 
"To know how to choose a path with heart is to learn how to follow intuitive feeling." -- Jean Shinoda Bolen

Duplicating someone else's journey would prevent you from contributing your unique gifts.  However, if specific plants grow from planting and cultivating specific seeds, then cultivating specific 'seeds' of thought in your mind will produce specific events.

"The secret of life then is to control your mental states, for if you will do this, the rest will follow. To accept sickness, trouble, and failure as unavoidable, and perhaps inevitable, is folly, because it is this very acceptance by you that keeps these evils in existence. Man is not limited by his environment. He creates his environments by his beliefs and feelings. To suppose otherwise is like thinking that the tail can wag the dog." -- Emmet Fox

This means planting specific mental seeds BY YOU

will produce your own, unique journey through life.
