DON’T UNDERESTIMATE HUMBLE BEGINNINGS.

A story was told of a farmer who planted maize and bamboo on the same day and watered them equally. Months later, he realized the maize had germinated while the bamboo tree remained as it was. It dawned on him to uproot the bamboo since it wasn’t showing any sign of growth. He was in absolute quandary so he only had to leave it and see the way forward. Little did he know the mystery behind this. Imagine!

It is an undeniable fact that people look down on others for many a millions of reasons. One of which is when they find them unproductive in their lives. As a matter of fact, the present conditions of people liscense others to take them for nothing. The mystery behind the said static growth of the Bamboo tree is that, bamboos know the height at which they stand. Research has proven that bamboos usually grow 3-5 feet in height per year. If it doesn’t gain a firm stand, it will probably fall when blown by wind. The bamboo tree was actually gaining ground and making sure it’s roots get to the depth of the soil before it shoots up as the farmer yearned to see.

Why then do you make comparisons that this is making it and the other is not progressing? The bamboo tree dispised of it’s static growth overtook the maize plant in height. Great things really began with humble and most times, humourous starts. Mobile phone started with something bulky but it has evolved in a way that makes it portable to be put in the pocket. Steve Jobs revolutionized the entire world with an iPhone and of course, how he began seemed impossible of him attaining this height.

Look at Albert Einstein who was despised and tagged an unsuccessful man because he failed almost all his exams and passed only Physics and yet, won the Noble Prize Award. Whatever that seem impossible is actually possible just that it is inflicted with the morpheme “Im” which in disgue is saying “I’m”. You are possible of becoming the next Bill Gates once you create doors for yourself.

Mark Zuckerberg, the owner of Facebook least expected seeing his application trending globally because he actually created to connect only a few students in Havard University. Such a simple start!. If you wish moving Mountains tomorrow, you start by lifting stones today. Nothing great begins being that great we see. If it’s a penny, start the business with and you’ll shortly reap zillions. “The height by which great men reached and kept was not attained by a certain flight but rather when their companions slept were tailling upwards” so wise up and stop tagging things impossible.

Don’t ever think you aren’t capable of doing something. Irrespective of how small it is, you can grow it. The biggest building in the world even began with a foundation. The only difference between the poor and the rich is time. Work is of course measured in joules so once you sit idle, you’re instead cracking jokes or loosing joules which figuratively is your weatlh. Never disregard this your humble start. Think about something innovative and work towards the achievement of such a dream. Who knows if you are the next in line to bring on board something great?
