The story
Ever feel like you’re planting seeds in a field and wondering why nothing’s growing yet? Yeah, same. Few years back, I was pacing in this exact mental drought—burnt out, frustrated, full-on “What am I even doing with my life?” vibes. But then, I stumbled upon this idea: The Law of Harvest. Game-changer.
Here’s the deal: in life, you reap what you sow. But—plot twist—you reap LATER. Not today. Not tomorrow. Later. Which means all that hustling, learning, failing, and pivoting? It’s not for nothing. It’s your future harvest in the making.
Younger me didn’t get this. He thought success was like ordering takeout—instant gratification only. Define a niche? Boring. Focus on one thing? Nope, gotta do it all! Think long-term? Please.
But here’s what changed everything: zooming in on one thing makes people actually get what you’re about. Add some self-care [because burnout is NOT the move], baby steps toward goals, and stubbornness when things get rough? Now we’re talking.
And failure? It’s like that friend who tells you when you’ve got food in your teeth. Annoying but helpful. Each setback is just prep for your comeback.
Want the full story on this whole glow-up journey? Check out Chapters 3-5 of “The Journey.” I packed everything I wish I knew at 21 in there—finding your lane, bouncing back from fails, and playing the long game. Trust me, future you will be stoked you started planting those seeds today. 🌱
