Growing More Than Tomatoes: Lessons in a Vision & Intentional Steps
Mar 11, 2025
There's something magical about eating what you've grown with your own hands. One of my favorite summertime treats is a delicious homegrown tomato from one of my outdoor pots. With just a suburban deck, a minimal backyard and a desire for growing more, I'm discovering that dreams can grow in even the smallest spaces.
My journey from store-bought plants to starting seeds taught me this - dreams don't require perfection, just persistence. As my kitchen shelf has transformed into a makeshift greenhouse, each tiny seedling pushing through the soil reminds me that growth happens in an almost unrecognizable pace.
What began as a simple garden dream has rooted into something deeper. Each morning, while checking on my emerging plants, I realize it's not just about growing food – it's about nurturing patience, celebrating small wins, and finding satisfaction in the journey itself.
Like these carefully tended seeds, any meaningful growth requires both vision and intentional steps. My garden planning process mirrors the same principles I use in our 12-week planner:
- Start where you are
- Set clear intentions
- Map out small, manageable steps
- Celebrate tiny victories
- Learn from setbacks
Growth can come in all shapes and sizes. Whatever vision you have for your next step - growing your business, making a personal change, or implementing a new habit - success blooms from planting those first intentional seeds and tending them daily.
