Summary
This quote is advising self-reliance and the idea of taking control of one's own circumstances. It suggests that if you put in the effort to do tasks yourself, such as chopping wood for a fire, not only will it physically warm you when you use the wood, but it will also provide a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction for having accomplished the task independently. In essence, it emphasizes the importance of taking personal responsibility and putting in the necessary work to reap the rewards fully.
By Henry Ford
