Have you ever wondered why some efforts pay off while others fall short? In this episode, I'm diving into a concept close to my heart: the Law of the Harvest. Over the past decade running my own business, writing books, and speaking at countless events, I've come to realize that this principle—reaping what you sow—holds true in every aspect of life. Whether it's nurturing relationships, building a business, or improving personal health, every effort we put in directly influences the results we achieve. It's not always easy, but embracing this law has taught me invaluable lessons about responsibility, perseverance, and the rewards of consistent effort.
