There was a farmer who grew excellent quality corn.
Every year he won the award for the best grown corn.
One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something interesting about how he grew it.
The reporter discovered that the farmer shared his seed corn with his neighbors.
“How
can you afford to share your best seed corn with your neighbors when
they are entering corn in competition with yours each year?” the
reporter asked.
“Why
sir,” said the farmer, “Didn’t you know? The wind picks up pollen from
the ripening corn and swirls it from field to field.
If
my neighbours grow inferior corn, cross-pollination will steadily
degrade the quality of my corn. If I am to grow good corn, I must help
my neighbours grow good corn.”
So it is with our lives...
Enrich the lives of those around you and your life will become beautiful.
call it a principle of success...
call it a law of life.
The fact is, none of us truly wins, until we all win!!
