I wanted my rose to bloom so badly that I kept checking on it all day.
Micromanaging it.
Wishing it would hurry up.
Here’s the thing I finally realised: growth doesn’t respond to pressure. You can’t rush the outcome.
You can water it, give it sunlight, care for it but you can’t make it bloom faster.
The same goes for people, projects, and ideas. Constantly hovering, pushing, or checking won’t speed things up. Patience, trust, and steady care do.
Sometimes the best thing you can do is step back and let growth happen in its own time.
Have you ever tried micromanaging something only to realize patience works better?
