Legacy Farmer The Podcast

Within each family there is one person that changes the family for generations to come. They are the ones pushing new ideas, and often being the ones having those ideas ignored or shot down, yet they persist in sharing new ideas. Ask yourself if you are the person that cares enough about those around them, to be motivated by the worry of what will happen to them, if you don't step up.

When you finally decide to own your truth, it means that you are tired of living a lie, tired of not saying what needs to be said, or doing what needs to be done. You are tired of the day-to-day BS. Three things will happen once you start living this way. People will think something is wrong with you, they will distance themselves from you, and then they will start thinking about you.

When you run an operation with family it is important to have clear guidelines and numbers when sharing anything, especially big ticket items. You never want someone to come back to you after their operation has fallen apart and tell you what you owe them. It needs to be black and white, not in the gray area.

There are different levels of risk depending on what level your business is currently at. The risks and problems you face after year one are far different than those in year five. Early on in the business, with no real foundation, the risks are massive and can be all-or-nothing. Later on, once you have the stability to take your time and are much better prepared, the risk comes way down to a point where it won't kill the business.

Your second life begins when you realize you only have one. Many of us are living a life that we feel we just weren't meant for. We feel like we are settling and only doing things to make others happy, rather than ourselves. If you aren't constantly learning and growing, you are dying.

Paying taxes is a byproduct of success. I'd much rather have a big tax bill than make no money. Having a big tax bill is a good problem to have and shouldn't be complained about. Make sure you count your blessings for where you are today, rather than taking it all for granted. All success comes with challenges that should be appreciated and embraced.

You will do better work if you are bored instead of busy. Right now, everything in the operation is either done by you or goes through you, creating a huge amount of busy work. Our goal in Legacy Farmer is to create so much time and freedom in your operation that you become bored. This frees up so much mental energy that you can then use to focus on the big things.

I was with my parents when their entire operation went under, when they got kicked out of their house, when they filed for bankruptcy, when they sold the farm, and witnessing all of that was one of the biggest blessings in my life. It made me very aware of what the real world is like and what happens when you make bad financial decisions. It isn't possible to learn these lessons without the struggle attached to them.

The only way to truly choose path A, that has unlimited potential and will give you what you want, is to burn path B. If there is an easy, safe way out, you'll always be drawn to it and will never fully embrace the much harder but much more rewarding path. Path B comes with untold challenges, sacrifice, and lessons, but also unlimited potential, rewards, and growth.
