A lot of times we hear people saying that one exposure to a positive
or a negative material does not have any impact. That is not true. The
difference may not be visible but something is happening.
In China there is a
bamboo tree which is planted, watered and fertilized for the first four years
and nothing happens. There is no visible sign of growth. But sometime during
the fifth year, the bamboo tree grows about 90 feet in six weeks. The question
is: Did the bamboo tree grow in six weeks or did it take five years to grow
even though there was no visible sign it was taking root in the ground? When
there was no visible sign, if someone had stopped watering and fertilizing it,
would this have happened? Certainly not. The bamboo tree would have died. We
need to learn from nature and the lesson is pretty clear. Have patience and
faith and keep doing the right thing. Even though the results may not be
visible, something is happening.
Take Inventory: Make a List of All Your
Strengths and Weaknesses
Successful people realize their limitations but build
on their strengths. Unless we know these things, how can we build on them?
Focus on what you want to do and be, rather than what you don't. STRENGTHS WEAKNESSES
