Came across a lovely message on my LinkedIn wall this evening about adopting a farmer’s mindset- A metaphor that points to how we all can operate in our work settings.
Reproducing the content below.
- Don’t shout at the crops.
- Don’t blame the crop for not growing fast enough.
- Don’t uproot crops before they’ve had a chance to grow.
- Choose the best plants for the soil.
- Irrigate and fertilise.
- Remove weeds.
- Remember you will have good seasons and bad seasons- you can’t control the weather; only be prepared for it.
