Making my garden grow






So concerned was I about whether the negative experience I had the other day was a one-off or not, I asked my twitter pals if it was normal to have members of the team not as forthcoming as others.

One twitter pal sent me this Japanese proverb:

"You don't make your garden grow by watering the rocks."

He advised me to spend my energy where it will make a difference.

I've had this on my mind for three days now, and I know in my heart he is right. Work with the people who want to be involved, who will make a difference, who will try things just to see if they work or not.

I shall make sure I don't water the rocks!
