We need nourishment.
Without it we can not survive. Without it we can not grow.
Each of us requires a unique blend of nourishment to achieve all we can achieve.
If we were plants we would need water, food and light to greater or lesser degrees. There are many factors which determine if a plant gets too much or too little of these three necessitates. A waterlily will not grow in the desert, nor a cactus in a pond.
We’re more complicated than that. And often more flexible. Unlike plants we can take control. We are not fixed in one location, we can move.
If what you do doesn’t nourish you, change what you do.
