The Wisdom of a Bamboo Seed…

I found this article at the Agloco Company Blog. It was written by Prubjoat Singh. It is a wonderful article that may assist us all in our success with Agloco as well as in life!

If you are not enrolled with Agloco and are looking to join with a Leader, I encourage you to consider Prubjoat Singh and others who show such vision and wisdom as you search the community of Agloco!

(Prubjoat started this article responding to some Agloco members who were concerned about how long they may have to ‘wait’ before seeing ‘big’ financial rewards).Hello Shyam and all,

I understand your feelings, but then it depends what kind of returns you are looking for. If you know about the share market, there are different kinds of people [referring to investing].

For some, a day is too long so they invest in intra-day. Some can wait a few months and some invest for long-term and get confirmed good results in a matter of a few years. But the previous two may gain highly or may lose huge amounts.

You see Rome was not build in a day. It took years.

A bamboo seed needs to be fed with manure and water below the mud for 5 long years before it sprouts it’s head out. Just imagine the patience of those who farm bamboo trees.

The same is the case with a child. From birth to about 5 years one has to take care of the child in all possible ways before it is capable of getting into a primary school. And it doesn’t end there. One has to wait until the child grows at least 16 to 18 years with some higher secondary education, and most of them want to go up to graduation and further before they actually start sharing some of the financial burdens (say about 21 years). Think… one waits 21 years for nurturing one’s own child before it expects any financial returns from it.

Similarly we see this in building a new company. There are certain things that are part of it [building the infrastructure] that are happening for the 1st time, with such complex software [in Agloco’s case]… I think they [Agloco] have achieved well by launching the viewbar within one year.

The bugs are teething troubles and will certainly be taken care of as and when they get hold them and are worked upon.

There’s also an age old saying for the new entrepenuers that goes “pehla saal chatti, doosra hatti te teeja khatti…”

It means, “The first year is to invest, the second to break even and the third to earn profits.”

Well, AGloCo belongs to all of us. “So we all are investing in the first year, some by putting time, some money and some both.”

“Now the next year is the year when we should think of break-even and then the third year is the year to reap profits.”

You seem be a young blood on the fast track. Life is a mixture of good and bad. But, take time to stand and stare… and you shall agree that…

Life is beautiful and not without problems and sorrows. Enjoy it by the moment you are in and you shall love it forever…

With Love… in God’s Care…
Prubjoat Singh
