The Parable of the Sower read and listen on sahilbloom.com read time 2 minutes Programming Note: I'm experimenting with something new: The Friday Five will be split across four short weekday emails that will take 1-2 minutes (max!) of your time. The Wednesday deep dive will remain the same. My goal is that this change will mean more of you are able to take action on these ideas and experience the growth that follows. 1% better, every single day. Stay curious, friends.
This is one of my favorite parables: A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them. Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, since they had no depth of soil, but when the sun rose they were scorched. And since they had no root, they withered away. Other seeds fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them. Other seeds fell on good soil and produced grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. He who has ears, let him hear. - Matthew 13:3-9 This passage offers a powerful reflection on one truth: Your environment creates your reality. The same seeds can manifest very different results: - They fall on the path and are quickly eaten
- They fall on rocky ground and cannot establish a foundation
- They fall on thorny ground and fail to breathe
- They fall on good soil and thrive
Even the best seeds are no match for the worst environment. You can only flourish if you're planted in the right ground. Plant yourself in the fertile soil necessary to grow: - Surround yourself with positive, kind, authentic people
- Invest in mentors who shine a light on your path
- Embrace a growth mindset in all areas
- Set boundaries that protect your energy and peace
- Create space for stillness and reflection
- Remove "weeds" that threaten to harm your soil
Your environment creates your reality. Choose wisely.
