True, about doing as many things as possible on the farm yourself.......but, you run out of time before you run out of places of “ I could do that myself”
It’s my own doing but even after all these years for me it just feels like I’m on the job 24/7/365. Always thinking “I should take care of that, add that to my list to get done”
There is no time clock to punch out and go home
This needs repeated. I need it burned into my brain. Cash flows look great when you do all the work yourself but you can’t do all the work yourself
So true , especially for livestock guys , like Mikado says its a 24/7/365 as even when you wake up in the night you think "i gotta do this,this,ect."
I am the 'old guy'here now but still worry....We did a de-pop-re-pop 3 yrs. ago and it was like heaven not worrying about power failure, feed, breakdown,ect...Honestly, few cash croppers realize it but they have the best job in the world
Fork in the road.....
