The Forest of Golden Seeds

Once upon a time, there was a young man named Elias who lived in a valley surrounded by mountains. One day, an old traveler handed him a small bag with ten golden seeds.

—These are not ordinary seeds —said the old man—. They are investment seeds. If you plant them well and are patient, they will bear fruit for a lifetime. But be careful: if you leave them in the bag or plant them thoughtlessly, they will disappear.

Intrigued, Elias decided to give it a try. He planted one in the first clearing he found, without preparation or watering. Soon, the seed rotted.

With the second, he was more careful: he researched the soil, the climate, and watered it daily. Over time, a tree sprouted that bore golden fruit.

Excited, Elias realized that investing was not just about planting, but about understanding, caring, and waiting. Thus, with each remaining seed, he became wiser, diversifying the land and planting times.

Years later, the entire valley blossomed with golden trees. People from all over came to learn from the young man who had grown a forest with patience, knowledge, and vision.

Elias had not only multiplied his seeds: he had invested in his future.
