A Chinese farmer, eager to grow a bamboo plantation, planted some on his farm and then waited.
In the first year, nothing came out.
In the second year, there was still nothing visible.
The same thing happened during the third and fourth years.
By the time the fifth year arrived, there were millions of kilometers of intertwined roots underground, and when the bamboo finally broke through the surface, it grew 30 centimeters a day.
In just 6 weeks, they reached a height of over 20 meters. The farmer then harvested the bamboo and became rich.
As the old Confucian saying goes: “All things come to those who know how to wait.” We could even add: Make absolutely sure you have planted the seeds.
