BUILDING FROM THE GROUND UP

     There's a difference between flurried activity and actual productivity. We can easily create busy-ness and spend money to create a facade of success. But real success comes from hard, steady work and daily commitment  It's a growing and a building, not a dust-storm.

I catch myself being frantic and overwrought and telling myself that I am being productive. I stop everything, regroup, and start again with steady, grounded intention. I remember that real productivity is rooted in calm and clarity, not in the fickle wind of the moment.
