Forests can be seen as the empires of nature. Some of these forests extend for hundreds of thousands of square miles while others exceed 1 million square miles. Forests also provide a bulk of the Earth’s oxygen, and if all forests were lost, we would lose a big percentage of oxygen on the planet.
These forests that provide Earth with most of its oxygen and are filled with countless trees all started off with an acorn. Some forests have a few hundred trees while others have tens of thousands of trees, but no matter how many trees are in a forest, it all started with an acorn.
Your success and glory, just like a forest, starts off with an acorn. It may take some time for you to find your first acorn, but when you find the acorn, you will have something small that could potentially turn into a giant oak tree.
Agreed. Visualizing all that can come from the acorn (i.e. the talents, skills, plan) held in your hand is a fruitful exercise. People with strong visualizations skills have more defined futures because they see and know what they are working towards. thanks, Marc.Always love your posts.
Thank you Rodney. Your kind words mean a lot to me.
Everyone starts with the acorn. Some people still have the acorn while other people have turned their acorns into the Apples and Amazons of the world. My brother taught me this one. He is a young entrepreneur as well.
So good, Marc. It all starts with a little piece of something. A little faith, consistent steps of discipline. With time and diligence, a forest (enterprise, thriving organization, growing church, large charity, whatever you can imagine) is created. Great post Marc.
Thank you Rodney. It is also important to envision the forest when you are holding the acorn. For some people, this is the hardest thing to envision, but this vision will give you a lot of motivation to get there. I am glad that you enjoyed the post.
