A Chinese bamboo tree takes five years to grow. It has to be watered and fertilized in the ground where it has been planted every day. It doesn't break through the ground for five years. After five years, once it breaks through the ground, it will grow 80 feet tall in five weeks!
Now imagine a scenario where the person who plants the seed calls it
quits before the fifth year. It is natural for frustration to creep in when no
transformation is evident for four years. The agony is in direct proportion to
the intensity of effort.
But it would be tragic to miss out on the deserving glory of the 80
feet shoot. So often we quit just when positive results to our proactive
efforts are just round the corner. It is not enough to take initiative and
follow up with sincere actions. We must learn to wait.
To be better at getting a deserving consequence we must inculcate the
attitude of patience and perseverance. The outcome may be delayed but it is
worth the wait when the end-result more than makes up for the delay.
learn to be patient in every waiting game
script of bamboo & success is the same!
