The Chinese Bamboo When you plant a chinese bamboo, you will water and nurture it for five years before it sprouts out. On the fifth year, it will sprout out and within 5 weeks, it will grow into a 90 feet tree. it is said that the bamboo will grow at a rate of one foot a day. It is also said that if you spend some time on the tree, you will hear and see it grow. Some say that a chinese bamboo grows within 5 weeks while others say its five years. Regardless, the fact remains that the tree has been nurtured and taken care of for over five years. We need to nurture our dreams irrespective of the results. Patience is a key virtue in business. Once we nurture our dreams and ideas and ensure that we are moving towards our goals and visions, it will only take us a short time to sprout into success. For the five years, the bamboo spends developing the roots and its foundation. It grows roots as deep as 90 feet to reach the water. And immediately it reaches water and taps int the rich minerals in the soil, then it gets ready to show itself to the world. Plan, plan and plan. Test, learn and retest. Until when you are sure you can succeed. Then scaleUp big. |
