My son wanted to practice his archery the other day.
Problem was, our target area looked like an African Savanna.
Four-foot tall dry grass everywhere.
You couldn’t even see the targets on the straw bales.
Most folks would grab a gas or electric weed wacker.
Buzz buzz buzz.
Done in 5 minutes.
Not me.
I went to my shed and picked my trusty scythe off the wall.
Mine is a “modern day” scythe so it looks like golf club but with a wicked blade.
(I would have gone old school, but I didn’t wanna look like the Grim Reaper and freak out my neighbors).
I started swinging back and forth, back and forth.
Grass flying overhead with each swing.
The rhythm was hypnotic.
Swish. Swish. Swish.
As I worked I could hear everything.
The grass cutting clean.
Grasshoppers buzzing as they jumped outta my way.
Birds chirping from nearby trees.
No engine noise.
No gas fumes.
No rushing.
Just me, the tool, and Nature working together.
Sure, it takes A LOT longer than a gas-powered weed wacker.
And that’s when I wondered:
Why do so many gardeners rush past the magic?
Everyone wants to plant their garden NOW.
They want their harvests ASAP.
They refuse to slow down and discover how nature actually works.
And they miss the secrets hiding in plain sight.
The truth is, s-l-o-w-i-n-g d-o-w-n changed everything for me.
It will sound counter-intuitive, but…
PATIENCE is actually how I figured out how to get plants to grow FAST.
Patience is how I get double yields in half the time.
Patience is how I get rid of pests without spraying anything.
Patience is how I build rich soil quickly, without spending a fortune.
Because only when you slow down, does nature reveals her mysteries.
She shows you the shortcuts that actually work.
She teaches you the ancient wisdom that creates abundance.
After an hour of swinging, I had cleared a perfect shooting lane.
My son got his practice in.
And I got something even better.
Peace.
Satisfaction.
And another reminder, that when it comes to Nature:
Slower… is actually faster.
Keep growing,
