How a tree taught me a life lesson

0

Ever wondered why it as so hard to reach your goals?  You work and work and work, just to find out that you have to work much harder for much longer. I use to think that if I build a website that people would just come to see what I had written, then I found out that I had to promote said site, then I found out that there are good and bad ways to promote my site. After learning the good ways, I then realized that I still had to learn the bad ways in order to avid them, then I found out that the good ways are much harder and would take much longer to payoff. All this time I still had to maintain my site with constant updates, interacting with readers, and answering questions.

One day I was sitting in the park thinking about the next phase of my plans for my sites and say two trees, one next to the other. One was huge and obviously been there for decades and the other was small and probably  only a few years old. I started to wonder about how long and how much the larger tree had to endure to get to that size, then it hit me like a the tree just fell right on top of me. I have only been working on my business for about a year ( I was the small tree) and it would take many more years and more hard work to reach the size of the other tree.

I wanted to talk before I learned the language, to walk before I learned to use my legs. Learning the good and the bad ways to promote my sites has helped me to reach where I am now and I have more to learn before I reach where I really want to be.

LESSON OF THE DAY:

A GOOD SOLID FOUNDATION IS THE KEY TO LONGEVITY
