As long as we breathe we will be planning for our tomorrow… knowingly or otherwise! There is no escaping the truth that tomorrow’s harvest will be a by-product of the seeds we plant today.
Once we understand this we can do one of two things; something or nothing! It’s sort of like gardening, regardless of what we do or don’t do, stuff grows! The issue is… will the right stuff grow?
- Weeds by default… flowers through effort
- Loneliness by default… happy relationships through effort
- Poverty by default… financial prosperity through effort
- Failure by default… success through effort
It is almost as if the world was created to provide opportunities and challenges. By grasping these opportunities and facing the challenges we not only reap success but also character.
Anyone CAN change their financial status (not overnight and not by default)… it’s just most WON’T. The two $64,000 questions that sooner or later we all need to ask ourselves are:
- Do I WANT to (change my financial status)?
- Am I prepared to DO something about it?
When confronted with the reality of those questions I answered with a resounding YES. Perhaps on your life’s journey you are at that place right now where you too are saying “YES”!
You may have failed in the past as we all do from time to time. You may have sown your seed but the expected harvest failed to materialise.
Even the farmer is afflicted with times of famine, storms and pests. What does he do? He simply continues to sow for the next harvest. It is a truism that “the season of failure is the best time for sowing the seeds of success”.
Every week we assist ordinary people make sense of their current situation and help them construct a workable plan to catapult them closer to their desired goals.

Awesome Nick
Thanks for your encouragement – it was great as Colin and I have certainly been through a famine and lost multiple crops with unexpected investment failure. It is not easy clawing our way back out of this debt hole however we will keep ploughing, planting and we WILL see a harvest!
Well Done with your articles – they minister!
