The Chinese Bamboo Tree

59

The Chinese bamboo tree teaches patience with style. You plant it, water it, and wait… and wait… for years. Nothing above the surface. Meanwhile, the tree is secretly building a vast root system deep underground. Then, suddenly, in its fifth year, it shoots up to 80 feet in just six weeks. The takeaway? Real growth often happens out of sight. Keep nurturing your efforts, even when it seems like nothing’s happening—you might just be laying the groundwork for something huge.
