I have learned lots from just listing to older people! I enjoy to sit with someone over 70 years old!

Another lesson I learned at a young age was from a older guy who was in his 80s when I meet him, He started Farming by himself at the age of 15 years old!
He retired from farming at the age 72 and never bankrupted one time!
I asked him how he was so successful in a industry that has Had lots of hard times!
He said...don't sleep pass 6am... Work can not get done laying on your back! God gave us sunlight to work...so that's your clock! Eat when your hungry and work till your done! Take time off to relax on Sundays and never put your career before your family!
And he never worked on Sundays and if you farmed his land... The Farmer was not allowed to work on Sundays on his land!
