Not the long-winded posts I normally like to do, but this just came across the desk yesterday, and it struck me as relevant.
The quote is from the intro to a gardening book (don’t ask, its a long story) and the writer was trying to illustrate that anyone can be a good gardener, even if they do not have “gardening” background. He says:
“Good gardening in not in the genes… its in the jeans.”
Which means that if you invest effort, you will see results.
Same with us. We may not have the background, the resources, the connections the next person has. But if we invest our best efforts, we will see results.
So don’t just stand there… dig in!
