We all know the saying, “April showers bring May flowers.” It’s a simple reminder that the rain and gloom of today pave the way for the beauty and growth of tomorrow. But this idea doesn’t just apply to nature—it applies to life, too.
KEEP PLANTING SEEDS
A personal example that comes to mind as a business owner is the tediousness of sales and marketing outreach. At times, it has felt like a never-ending task. I would spend hours crafting emails, sending follow-ups, and making cold calls—often without any immediate results. But I had to stick with it and continue planting those seeds with potential clients. Eventually, those efforts paid off with new clients and more referrals that grew my business.
How does this apply to you?
Right now, you might be working hard at something that feels tedious, uncomfortable, or downright frustrating and even worse—it’s not giving you the results you want. Maybe it’s building a new habit, tackling a challenging project, or pushing through a tough season. It’s easy to get discouraged when all you see are the storm clouds. But these difficult moments are preparing you for something better.
KEEP PLANTING SEEDS
Growth doesn’t happen without effort. Success doesn’t come without setbacks. And confidence isn’t built without a little discomfort. The key is to trust that the work you’re putting in now will bloom into something amazing later. Every time you push forward despite uncertainty, you strengthen your belief in yourself and your ability to handle challenges. When you do that, you Create Self-Trust—the second step to Unlimited Confidence.
So if you’re in an “April showers” season, keep planting seeds. Your “May flowers” are on their way.
