The time between planting the seed and harvesting the fruit differs depending on what you plant.
There are some things where you see a quick harvest, like planting cress seeds. Other things take a lot longer before you can reap the rewards, like pineapples, that take three years to yield fruit. The same can be said of those things that we plant in our own lives, whether that is patience, weight loss, increasing fitness, learning a new language, building resilience or whatever it is that you want to grow the fruit of. And those things take different amounts of time in different people as well. The trick is to keep your expectations at a reasonable level for the goal you're aiming for.
Love your page, Tracy, and the 'reasonable expectancy' that accompanies it. What an excellent reminder, as I work towards rebuilding the strength in my body. It took six weeks to fall apart, and will likely take as long to rebuild! As always, you are an inspiration.
