Abilities Need Continuous Development

“Natural abilities are like natural plants

they need pruning by study.”

Francis Bacon 1561 - 1621, English Statesman,

Philosopher, Scientist, Orator, Author

   

 

 

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Abilities need continuous development

 

Your abilities are like a garden.

 

A garden left to its own will become over ran with weeds . . . . Without attention . . . . pruning and nurturing will grow wild . . . . and out of control. The production coming from that garden will become minimal at best as a result of its lack of care.

 

A garden that’s cultivated pruned . . . . and nurtured will grow its full maturity . . . . and will reach its full potential for production.

 

Your abilities are a lot like a garden. When you want to maximize your abilities you have to continually cultivate . . . . prune  . . . . develop and nurture your abilities to a fine edge. It’s your reasonability to develop  your abilities . . . . to their full maturity.

 

The level of your abilities will determine the pace of your success journey . . . . and the height of success that you achieve.

 

Nurturing your abilities is not an event . . . . or a one-time occurrence. It’s making the commitment to continued incremental improvement . . . . and the commitment to your personal growth.

 

Your abilities need continuous development  . . . . and as you continue to sharpen your abilities you create a strategic business advantage.

That quote is a prescription I believe in. Naturally, I think it's perfect and a great motivator for today!

Hello Lou Ludwig,  My wife is the garden in the beginning of spring and I am the weed guy by August.  I will let her read this one.

"the committment to continued growth".  So much meaning behind those few words Lou.  Much to be gained is understood.  Mark

As always Lou... you are spot on with this topic and analogy!!  When we stop "growing" in many aspects of our personal lives and business... we lose out!!

Hi Lou Ludwig natural abilities need to be fed and nurtured in order to develop.... talented people must continually use that talent and improve it...

Lou- this is so true. What talents we have need to be nurtured and developed.  We cannot leave them alone and expect them to always be there.

Hi Lou, talent usually does not grow on trees, it has to be cultivated.

I wish talents did grow on trees :)  But as it is, we have to nurture our talents that we have.

No matter your talent or lack thereof nurturing ( I love that word) and practice will get you there, Lou.

Dear Lou,

A neglected garden will probably grow semi-fine, but you will not really be able to see your results or benefit from them as you would with a little fussing.

Although manure may help the garden grow,
BS does not have the same effect on personal development.

Nurturing skills is very important. Couldn't agree more.
