We've been speaking a lot about investing recently. M's book – Take Back Time, mentions the difference between wasting, spending, and investing quite a lot.

In a world where we are constantly bombarded with advertising, FOMO, keeping up with whoever the new family next door may be, it is often hard not to think about the urgency we feel about getting whatever the newest thing might be.

We often refer to gardening, and how we have learned that you grow soil, not necessarily plants. Over the last few years two very novice gardeners have learned a great deal about soil health, systems, watering, and feeding the ground that will feed our plants. It has been a rollercoaster of expectation, joy when things grow, and frustration about yet another plant that does not want to play ball.

Life does this to us too. As much as we want to believe in playing the long game and sticking it out, we get demotivated when things do not happen as quickly as we were hoping.

It is then that you have to remember. Investing comes in many forms. The time you spend when taking the walk and doing the stretch, the choice between another piece of bad food and something more healthy, the half an hour you rather read a book than doom scrolling the social… these are all ways in which you can invest.

Enjoy your Journey!
