Great Plains Growers Conference

Kat and I attended the Great Plains Growers Conference that was held in St. Joseph, MO. We heard some new stuff and some stuff we already knew but reinforced what we are planning.

For this short post I just want to share that we believe our plan is a solid one and that we have put a great deal of time in writing that plan and even visualizing it. We know that it will require hard work and a good deal of monetary investment but we are both committed to making that happen.

One of the things we believe is, "If you are doing what you enjoy and love then it is not a job even though it requires hard work."

Anyone who wants to do something without putting in either the monetary investment or the labor will most likely not even get started or if they do get started fail because they have not invested themselves and their capital into the dream. In reality they are not living their dream they are only acting in the dream of someone else.

(For those of you who are missionaries you are in a different situation than what I am talking
about here. What I am talking about here is someone who has a dream of a business type of
adventure and they are wanting someone else to pay for or do the work. Missionaries are
investing the most by serving God in a culture that is different than they are use to.)

I encourage you to dream but make the dream become a reality by investing yourself and your resources into it. It might mean you have to get a job to support your dream until it can support itself and it will most definitely require effort to make it become a reality. I know one thing for sure once it is a reality you will be able to enjoy the fruits of your investment of time and money.
