You can never bear fruits without having solid roots.

***Have you ever seen a tree that has a stem, branches, leaves, fruits but no roots? I don’t know if some scientist have done that in their labs or not. One thing I know is, unless it is artificially made in a lab someday, the only means for a tree to bring forth fruits is to have its root deep in a firm ground. There are a lot of people today who are faced with this dilemma today and they are trapped. Once they get a job, the people around them expect something. They expect you get them some nice wrist watch for them as a gift and sometimes expected to pay the bill instead of splitting it at the bar.***

One thing I know and believe just as I believe everyone needs oxygen to survive is the fact that money needs to be well invested for one gain financial freedom. Paying for the bill at the bar is really nice but if we are to do it every weekend as we meet up, we can never get to where we want to go. It sounds like being ungrateful but if you were to carefully take this issue into thinking, we’d realize how much we are throwing away.

If we dream of being impactful in a positive way to our society one day then we have got to save and invest our money consistently over a period of time and when the time comes for us to support, we would be able to bear the right fruits. It is hard but as usual, the easy road doesn’t pay dividends in the end.
# Have a lovely day.

Great post. Investing in a crypto is very difficult task. I assured my parents that I will return their money double if they invest their bank money to  crypto that is steem. They gave me money, but I am in great puzzle how to return them double amount. As the prices of steem go down and down.

You gambled with money that belonged to someone. That's serious.

Rightly said sir. Impact is a long term investment that adds to humanity, impact is not abstract. Living a life of impact is a conscious step towards greatness.

To lay your roots suggests you're happy and well-established where you live, settled, so that you can go on to be successful at that what you want to (and ideally are good at).  Possibly, to go on to raise a family of your own.

Great post @kwakumax. Roots symbolizes stability and strength. Forming them certainly does not come cheap but the benefits afterwards is a beautiful sight. Thanks Kwaku.

Really insightful post! 

There are lot of things we, I need to be be reminded of. 

The youthful years are full of distractions! 

Nice write up @kwakumax.

I see a discrepancy between being Rich and being Wealthy in your post. By means of root hear we can't but emphasize the all important pre-requisite KNOWLEDGE and ofcourse WISDOM (Christ) himself. 
John 15:1-5.

Thanks for sharing @kwakumax.


Still Elisedaniels...love for the Gospel.
