The author, along with his father, embarked on a year-long journey to grow a dragon fruit plant after being inspired by their neighbor's thriving plant. Initially, they faced disappointment as their own plants remained barren, despite their efforts. However, they refused to give up and instead decided to do their own research and experimentation.
The article highlights the key lessons learned throughout this process:
Sometimes, you have to figure things out on your own, as others may not be willing to share their knowledge freely. The author and his father had to rely on their own initiative to determine the right pot, fertilizer, and environmental conditions for the plant.
Patience is crucial when growing something like a dragon fruit, as it can take a long time for the first flower to bloom and the fruit to develop. The author emphasizes the importance of embracing the slow pace of nature, rather than expecting quick results.
When faced with failures, it's important not to get discouraged, but to try new approaches. The author and his father pivoted multiple times, experimenting with different methods, until they finally found the right formula for success.
The end result, in this case the delicious and large dragon fruit, is worth the wait and the effort put in. The author describes the deep satisfaction of reaping the rewards of their hard work and patience.
Reflecting on their neighbor's initial reluctance to share advice, the author realizes that being more open and helpful to others on their own journeys could have made the process easier for them as well. They now aim to share their knowledge and experience to help others grow their own success.
The article concludes by highlighting how the lessons learned from growing the dragon fruit can be applied to life in general, emphasizing the importance of perseverance, adaptability, and a willingness to learn from both successes and failures.
