Sowing our thoughts and ideas

My wish as always is that you will have a Happy Monday.

One of the eternal principles known to man is that where there is no sowing there will be no reaping. My father was a farmer and one of the things he taught me was to know when to plant the various crops. He also selected the best seeds to plant because for him farming was the means by which he earned his livelihood and supported his family.

One of the interesting things  I learned about farming was that it came with many unpredictable and uncontrollable circumstances. Sometimes although everything was done right the crops failed. At other times for no explainable reason there is a super harvest. Farming is risky investment but it certainly bring joy.

All of us do not consider ourselves as farmers but all of us have thoughts and ideas and for those of us that envision wealth and prosperity our ideas will have to serve as the seeds that we plant toward these goals. One of the things I learned in farming is that many plants that  I thought did not have seeds did have seeds and those seeds remain in the ground for years waiting for the right conditions to grow.

There are such circumstance which necessitated continuous sowing irrespective of whether the conditions are ideal or not and so too are our ideas. Some ideas serving as seeds immediately die because the soil is not right, other lay dormant in the ground waiting for the right conditions to grow while other grow and flourish immediately.

If we are to create our own wealth then you and I have to begin sowing our thoughts and ideas. The fascinating thing is this we do not know which idea will immediately grow and begin to bear fruit. We should also bear in mind that sowing and harvesting does not occur at the same time.

Begin sowing those thoughts and ideas today.
