Wherever you go, there you are.

Your surroundings create the context of your life. How something sounds or tastes changes with the environment you wrap yourself in. How you feel, what you think, all a product of what is all around you. What you see or what you do is directly proportionate to where you are.

Change you thinking... change your environment.

Think about the best cup of coffee you have ever had. Where was it? Who was it with? How was the service? What did the cup look like? What did the shop smell like? Were you inside or outside? What time of the year? What was on the walls? All of it matters. All of it context.

Change you learning... change your surroundings.

Simple enough, so you think. Harder than you know. Giving yourself to the environment you currently stand in, not easy. Basking in the product that surrounds you, difficult at best. Participating in backdrop of you see all around you, creativity at worst. Dressing yourself in the movie you’re starring in, exhilarating at best.

The surroundings we provide or live to create are out there for us to thrive in. Be present in what you do, be patient in who you’re with, and be involved with where you are.

Change your lens... change your view.
