The story is told of two boys who were walking through a feld and found some corn seeds scattered across the ground. They each took one of the seeds home and planted it.
When the frst boy didn't see a tiny sprout after the second day, he dug up the seed to see if it had sprouted. Each day he dug up the seed and replanted it, but the corn would not grow. The seed had germinated；yet the boy had not allowed it to maintain contact with the soil, take root, and obtain nutrients. So, it died.
The second boy planted his seed and left it alone. He imagined a tall stalk of corn where he had planted the seed. He waited patiently as rains came and sunshine bathed the ground with warmth. In ten days, a small sprout had broken through the ground, its curled leaves reaching toward the sky.
Achieving any desire, whether large or small, begins with a seed sown in the mind. That seed is the vision of its fulfillment. It alsorequires the commitment to allow the vision to grow. Commitment in daily life allows life's storms to strengthen resolve. Resolve allows us to nurture a new dream, improve an existing dream, or even begin over if necessary.
How often do we plant the seed of a beautiful dream in the fertile soil of our minds, and then dig it up?What could you achieve if you allowed your seed to grow, continuing to focus your spiritual eyes on the harvest?Just sow your seed, allow it to grow, and see an abundant harvest.
有这样一个故事：两个男孩在穿越一块田地时，发现地上有些掉落的玉米种子。他们各自捡了一颗回家，并把种子埋进土里。
第二天，第一个男孩看到种子还没发芽，他就把种子挖出来，看它是否已经长出芽来。他每天都要把种子挖出来，再种下去，然而种子仍然不长。其实这颗种子已经开始发芽，但这个男孩没有让它接触土壤，这颗种子无法生根发芽，吸收不到养分，最后死了。
