Have you seen this amazing garden?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

They had a vision for their property, but they also had three floods in 20 years. That didn't stop them pursuing the garden of their dreams though.

New Zealand’s lush green pastures and temperate climate means our country produces some of the world’s best beef.

New Zealand is one of McDonald’s top ten beef-producing markets and it’s such a hit with the rest of the world that a significant percentage of NZ’s beef exports are to international McDonald’s markets.

We partner with many Kiwi farmers who produce our beef, including Whangara Farms which was the first beef farm outside of Europe to be invited to the McDonald’s Flagship Farmers programme.

ANZCO Foods, based in the small Taranaki town of Waitara, are responsible for making our 100% beef patties. About 90% of the staff at the Waitara plant are locals and they manage to produce around half a million patties each day.

Our quality beef cuts are minced and that’s it. No additives or fillers, just mince that is formed in patties, before they’re flash-frozen and sent to restaurants.

🌟 Dr Brené Brown is a researcher who has spent the past two decades studying courage, vulnerability, shame & empathy. Some recent affirmations I love empowering myself with. Beats negative self-talk for sure:

1️⃣ "I choose to be proud of who I am rather than ashamed of how others see me."
2️⃣ "I am open, honest & compassionate with myself about my improvable areas giving myself the space required to grow."
3️⃣ "I can prep my mind for the future I desire until it's so familiar I see & seize opportunity I would not have before."

➕ Hang out with successful, can-do, positive people & you'll be next.

🔮 It's fascinating hanging out with can't do, negative people. Shame is one of the mind's subconscious tricks to keep us comfortable / in the status quo. It corrodes the part of us that believes we are capable of change. That is why it is so important to surround yourself with people that live the life you'd love.

🥳At www.DreamBigNewZealand.co.nz... we are part of a business community that is successful, can-do, positive & whose greatest delight is seeing others succeed - no strings or conditions. Just pure, authentic information & your own readiness to take full Personal Responsibility for your results.
