Quick wins can lead to long-term losses.

Before making a move, ask yourself how today's choice impacts tomorrow.

Success comes from thinking beyond the obvious.

Make decisions today that your future self won’t regret.

Ask: Will I look back and wish I had taken this chance? If yes, do it.

Just as gardeners plan for different seasons, leaders must prepare for market changes.

It's common here in Oregon to require "season extenders" to maintain a garden beyond the weather.

Success comes from anticipating shifts and adapting strategies for the times ahead.

Scouts value respect for nature, which translates to respect for people in business.

Treating others fairly, listening, and valuing their contributions creates a culture where everyone rises. Respect is the heart of leadership.

Good decisions aren't just about immediate results.

Second-order thinking asks, "And then what?"

Consider the ripple effects of every choice to avoid unintended consequences.

A thriving garden requires ongoing care, and so does a business.

Regular attention, adjustments, and maintenance ensure sustained growth in both.

In gardening, timing is everything. Plant too early or too late, and growth suffers.

Knowing when to act—whether launching a product or entering a market—makes all the difference in business.

Gardeners know that even the strongest plants need support.

Leaders, too, must provide guidance and resources to help their teams grow and withstand challenges.

Scouts develop strong problem-solving skills on their adventures. From building a fire to finding a trail, they learn to think critically.

Business leaders, too, grow by tackling challenges with creativity and determination.

Scouts face challenges with a smile. Whether a sudden rainstorm or a steep climb, their positivity turns obstacles into adventures.

In business, a resilient attitude inspires your team to tackle setbacks and keep moving forward.
