I was recently told how Chinese bamboo
grows. Young Chinese bamboo is a
slow-growing plant. When you nurture and
look after the bamboo, it grows two inches in the first year.
It then grows two inches in the second
year, it grows two inches in the third year and two inches in the fourth year. Then in the fifth year it grows 80 feet!
When I heard this, it reminded me of our
dreams. At times, it can feel like you
are working and working and nothing happens. Then when you are not expecting it, things
change, they take off, your life moves to a whole new level.
It’s important to nurture and look after
your dreams. Every step forward is a
step in the right direction. Keep
looking after your dreams. You never
know when they will take off.
