The Law of Sowing and Reaping

This is one of the most fundamental laws of the universe. It applies to agriculture, and it applies to business and life.

1. You Must Sow First

You cannot reap without sowing. You cannot get a return without an investment. You cannot get a harvest without planting seed.

Action: Don't look for the return before you make the contribution.

If you plant wheat, you get wheat. You don't get corn.

Positive: If you sow kindness, you reap friendship. If you sow hard work, you reap success.

Negative: If you sow neglect, you reap loss. If you sow bad habits, you reap poor health.

This is the miracle. You plant a few seeds, and you get a bushel. You give a little, and you get a lot.

Warning: This works for the negative too. A little neglect can lead to a big disaster.

There is a season for planting and a season for harvesting. They are not the same season.

Patience: You must have the patience to wait for the harvest. Don't dig up the seed to see if it's growing. Trust the process.

"Whatever you sow, you shall also reap." — Jim Rohn
