Plant the seed!
You don't grow the crop!
- Everything begins with a seed. It has to be planted.
- Many of us try to grow the crop on our websites.
- Whet the appetites... give them a hook!
- Don't try to get the fruit before the seed takes root... crop will fail every time!
Many of us rush through stuff!
- We rush to finish the lessons, without doing the tasks.
- Hurry to choose a niche and domain... rush, rush, rush.
- Throw mud on the wall and hope some of it sticks!
- Want a crop before the plant pops out of the ground...
- Hey... slow down... take your time.
- Water your website with great content.
- Check it... if it doesn't grab you, it won't grab your prospects.
- Revise it, change it, review it, constantly water it.
- Most crops take lots of sunshine and water AND time!
An ending quote by Israelmore Avivor seems appropriate here:
"Too much hurry will bury your goals. Too much hast will make you waste. Too quick race will cripple your pace. Be patient."
Plant your seed first... the crop will come.

When I first came here I was starving, recently fired from my job. That guy fired me like 8 times overall. And he still calls me looking for work.
Anyway, I was broke and hoping for instant success. I am still here, still learning, still not giving up. Yet back at the beginning of this part of my life journey, all that shiny stuff sure had my eyes off target a bunch.
Looking back I felt like Bevis and Buthead planting a Nacho Cheese plant, they poured coke on it and got upset when nothing happened. Funny stuff, now I a bit wiser and fully aware, dedication, action, consistent action, and knowing my why I am doing something is the way to getting what I want.

Makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the analogy.
There is one group of plants that requires very little attention to grow fast. Weeds! Nobody likes weeds. Bady created websites and posts are easy to grow fast, but nobody likes them just like the weeds.
Thought I'd throw in a corollary.
Cheers.
