Guest guest Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Hare Krishna THE STORY OF SEEDS Take a look at an apple tree. There might be five hundred apples on thetree, each with ten seeds. That's a lot of seeds. We might ask, "Why wouldyou need so many seeds to grow just a few more trees?"Nature has somethingto teach us here. It's telling us: "Most seeds never grow. So if you reallywant to make something happen, you should better try more than once."Thismight mean:. You'll attend twenty interviews to get one job.. You'llinterview forty people to find one good employee.. You'll talk to fiftypeople to sell one house, car, vacuum cleaner, insurance policy, or idea..And you might meet a hundred acquaintances to find one special friend. Whenwe understand the 'Law of the Seed', we don't get so disappointed. We stopfeeling like victims. Laws of nature are not things to take personally. Wejust need to understand them - and work with them.IN A NUTSHELLSuccessful people fail more often. They plant more seeds.
