What does it need to live and grow? Food, Water and the Sun. Some may need a little more nutrients to be a little healthier. A plants goal is to grow as much as possible and be as healthy as possible. Unlike humans a plant doesn't say to itself, I'm growing so slow I might as well give up or I am growing awkwardly and I don't look as good as those plants over there. I must be ugly or something must be wrong with me.
This is a great quote: Henry Ford once said, ‘Whether you think you can or think you can't, you're right’. We must learn to love who we are and continue to grow as a person. Strive to be the best we can be.
What we can learn from a plant is even though the weather may have been a bit tough and the water wasn't flowing like the plant needed to grow or the temperature was a bit harsh is that: A plant decides it will take the good with the bad and stand firm to hold its ground. It may lose a few branches and feel weak at moments but the plant becomes stronger in this trying time and fighting for its position. Napoleon Hill said, ‘Strength and growth come only through continuous effort and struggle.’
As humans we are going to experience Trials and Tribulations. We must look at these challenging times as lessons to help us to move on to the next level. We will be wiser and stronger.
