Learnings from Bamboo Plant

Sharing a wise forward that came my way….

Lesson from Bamboo.

A bamboo plant is an example for patience.

Try growing a bamboo plant. Water it regularly. Seasons will come n go. It will stay adamant without even growing an inch taller. For four years it will stay the same. One has to have patience watering it for four years. Nothing will happen to make you happy.
On the fifth
year the magic will happen. On the next season it will start to grow. Not an ordinary growth. In one year it will reach a height of 80 feet

How a plant which remained dormant for the first 4 years could reach this magical height
in the fifth year.

There lies Nature’s secret.. The wonder of Creation.

The first four years the plant prepares a strong base inside the earth. For it’s astonishing growth in the fifth year it needs strong root base to hold it’s height . The patience it has is for the initial four years is for it’s sustenance in the following years.

That’s the reason when it reaches great heights in the fifth year it never collapses or fall down.

Patience is a virtue that creates great heights in success. Never be in haste to grow and expand until you create a strong foundation & groundwork for your growth. Then nothing can stop ur growth and success.

Nothing is impossible here.
