Tend to your garden.

"Your business is never really good or bad 'out there.' Your business is either good or bad right between your own two ears." -Zig ZIglar

Keep scrolling for distractions. Don't look at your garden for weeds. Don't look at the garden or forest of our minds for weeding. Keep scrolling and you will find some weeds and problems out in someone else's garden to fix. But you heard about point fingers and how many are pointing back at you.



Some will argue, "But Kennon, those weeds have a place. They have a purpose. We need diversity. We need ........whatever. " Well, I never argued that point. I just said they can't live on my place for which I am responsible. I don't have enough real estate for that in my mind. To maximize my personal service and productivity, I must have a singularity of goals, work, and a vision of productivity. It must go if it doesn't fit in those preestablished contexts through the evolution of my property. It must be culled. Most of the time those "culls" had reached their peak anyway. I cannot tell you how many oaks I have cut to find a borehole in the center, tight poor growth rings, and suckering tops in a final effort to try and reach for the sun in an attempt to seek a yeild.


We know that out of chaos comes order. I get the whole biodiversity and functionality of plants in space and time. All I'm saying is that if we can choose which "weeds" we want or need exposure to in order to sequester the appropriate compounds, one in the bioita, move forward in tropic levels of time. Only so long can we afford to watch the same propagated childlike games in our adult life that rob so much energy and time.



Sharpen up the chain. Fill the tank with fuel and bar oil. Identify what needs to be culled over time. Recycle it on the way down and out of your system. Kick back and study what the future may grow into now that you have taken action. Those thoughts will be your new fuel. Burn the old weeds as you warm your shins.
