The Assets You Don’t Realize You Have

One of my friends
sells compost.

She makes the compost
in old pots
on her balcony.

The compost she sells
is derived from
her kitchen scraps
plus the leaves
and grass clippings
she collects
from the apartment
yard maintenance crew.

Yes, she considers
her kitchen scraps
to be valuable assets.

We all have assets
we don’t realize
we have.

It might be the story
haunting your dreams
or
the sports equipment
in your closet
or
your Grandma’s salsa recipe
or
something else.

Consider using what you already have
to start a new business.
