Look carefully at this tree.
At first glance, the tree looks damaged beyond repair. Broken midway through the trunk, the green leaves are soon to die out. But that's not the full story.
The break in this tree happened three years ago during a storm. I assumed it would then die away, and I would have to cut it down fully. Each year, the broken part of the tree grows new leaves. It has defied the odds. It lives.
I won't cut it down. It deserves its space.
Every spring, I watch this tree, and when it greens, it encourages me.
If you are an owner operator, it's likely that you can identify with this tree as I do.
In business, situations come along and break us. Most often, those things are beyond our control.
It's at that point that we all have a choice. Cut, and give up, or grow.
If you are in the space right now, take encouragement from this tree. Being broken is part of the process. Even in the worst breaks, we can thrive if we hold on.
My encouragement to you is to hold on. Find new ways to grow. Nothing says you have to reach the top to add value.
Use what you've been given and bless those who trust you.
You can find beauty in brokenness.
