I am gradually expanding
the vegetable garden
in my backyard.
Every year,
I add another perennial,
a plant that will return
every spring
and produce food for me.
Perennials tend
to be more expensive
to purchase.
I also have to learn
how to plant them
and how to best care for them.
They are an investment.
I only add one a year
to my ‘portfolio.’
This allows me
to focus on the new addition.
And that increases the odds
my investment
will pay off
…for the rest of my life.
This gradual and steady approach
can apply to ANY investment,
including investments
in our businesses.
Consider adding investments
slowly
and gradually.
That will increase the odds
they’ll provide the return
you need from them.
