I could put in another hour of digging work tonight, however it has been a long day.
How do you motivate yourself? I am compromising tonight, although it feels like a loss, I will go do business things that only require sitting at a computer.
Also need a better term for the farm than a business.
Suggestions welcome
That is up to you.
It should change over time.
In my youth I was driven by the desire for success.
The older I get the more I am driven by the fear of failure.
If the allure of success is losing its ability to drive you.
Make the fear of failure larger.
To do this make your goals public knowledge or at least public to those that you care about failing in front of.
Find the balance.
Run towards your success and away from your fears at whatever ratio is best for you in your current situation.
Thank me later.
Legacy.
I am reminded of Horatius’ stand:
“Then out spake brave Horatius,
The Captain of the gate:
‘To every man upon this earth
Death cometh soon or late.
And how can man die better
Than facing fearful odds,
For the ashes of his fathers,
And the temples of his Gods,’”
Grandiose, but it makes my point.
what is your farm about?
helps for the brainstorm
We are 8 acres, starting on the first, 50yrd of compost, a spade, ~64 10x4ft beds. Flowers for my wife’s bouquets. Food as an additional product, cost savings, and I cook. (fiat in the flowrrs) all organic. We are on the edge of planting out (last frost tomorrow)
Long term:
Permaculture flower farm with retirement/ ₿&₿ hostel off grid
