Oak trees are massive! And incredibly strong. But they don’t go from acorn to oak tree overnight. They take years of slow consistent growth to become a tree that can live for centuries.
The growth happens slowly and imperceptibly so that from day to day it appears that no growth is visibly happening. But gradually and undeniably, the humble acorn becomes a mighty oak.
Often the things that matter most don’t happen overnight. A healthy body, good mental wellness, financial or career success, robust relationships, these take time and consistent effort.
This is why I don’t trust people who claim to have found and now offer to sell me their quick or easy solutions for my personal development and problems.
Most often it’s utter nonsense wrapped in deceptive and appealing marketing that preys on our insecurities and desires.
Oak trees grow slowly and are very strong and live for a long time. That’s the kind of life I want to create.
