Know the difference between those who stay to feed the soil and those who come to grab the fruit. Some people are there to grow with you, to water your roots, and to see you flourish. They add value even when there's nothing to gain. Others only appear when the blessings start to bloom, drawn to the rewards but never the work. Learn to see who's helping you plant versus who's waiting to harvest what you've built. Real loyalty reveals itself in the seasons of struggle. When the soil's dry and the storms hit, the ones who stay and nurture your growth are the ones you build with. Protect your garden. Not everyone deserves a seat under the tree you spent years growing.
