This little book has an important message for young people who are in a rush to success! I really liked the way it was written with the analogy between “developing ideas” and “lessons from the farm”. It emphasizes the importance of patience and trusting the process as you pursue success in your life. Some specifics that I gleaned: Being patient is NOT being lazy. Trusted friends, especially mentors are valuable, if not critical to success. Hard work and knowing your process are essential to success. The support of quotes throughout the book is helpful. I enjoyed learning Ghanaian culture in farming, and I think I would like to know his “mum”. I often counsel young people in the role of a mentor. This book is a good short read with many things to help me.
