Bamboo Theory

Plant a Chinese bamboo sprout in the ground and for years nothing happens.

You water and fertilize; water and fertilize, over and over again but you see no visible evidence that anything is happening.

However, in the fifth year things change dramatically. In a six-week period the Chinese bamboo tree grows up to 28 meters.

The lesson : things take time, you reap what you sow and be consistent. If you stop watering in year 3 the bamboo won’t grow in year 5.
