If Not Now, When?

Good morning and welcome back from the Project Grow 365, Inc. Team! We have not forgot about our friends and trust that you have not forgotten about us! With summer in full swing, let's get in gear to continue making positive changes/progressions in our lives and the lives of those around us. Stay active!

If this is your first time to the site, welcome! We always enjoy making new friends, so come on in and make yourself right at home. Take a look around the site and see some of our other seed ideas; you'll also find in our Spotlight section other organizations that we have chosen to highlight for you to connect with. If you'd like to stay in touch with our project, feel free to subscribe to our blog in the "You've Got Mail!" section by entering your e-mail. As our promise to you, we won't send you any spam mail or junk mail, only updates to our operation. We look forward to hearing from you soon!

  

"I'll start working on my procrastination tomorrow."  This is one of the quotes about starting that stands out to us, because it's our approach to many things in life. "I'll go back and finish school next year." "I'll clean out my closets and donate my old clothes next weekend." "I'll start eating healthy next week." Our to-do list grows by the day!

What if next year never comes? Or next weekend? Or tomorrow? What if the friend we are supposed to encourage, doesn't want to talk anymore? There's a story of two men that visited a graveyard to pay respects to their loved ones. One man brought flowers, while the other man brought food. The man with the flowers asks the other guy mockingly "When do you suppose they will eat that food?" The other guy replies "When your person smells those flowers."

We have to make the most of the opportunities we have, when they are available to us. Take some time and think about what you have been putting off. Is it someone that could use your help? Is there a conversation that needs to be had to repair an old friendship? Perhaps there is an act of kindness you have been looking to do, but have doubts as to how it will be received. Take the step to move past contemplation and into action. You never know the difference you will make, just by being you.

As always, thank you for helping us change the world one seed at a time. By looking at our watch, it's time to get to it!
