Part IV:
Pace yourself.
I love to meet new, energetic, ambitious, zealous flower farmers. There’s a magic and energy around them that is unmistakable, irresistible! But it is true that we all have a limited amout of “life-energy,” and there is wisdom in pacing yourself to expend it over the length of time you wish to flower farm instead of using it all up in the first few years. Careful, purposeful pacing is not laziness.

Life is too short to waste rushing around just being busy! And I say this with derp conviction, as a woman who has wasted years being proud that I was driven enough and had enough stamina to pack more into a day than the next person. As an enneagram #type3 who has been unhealthy too long, I’m working hard to stop my headlong rush to achieve what I hope can make me more valuable and focusing on what TRULY is valuable.

James 4:14 “Yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.”
