Patience and The Splash
I'm reading a very good book on Confucius and his influence. The man traveled a lot, lecturing, teaching, trying to make a difference in his culture with ideas people could use. But not that many truly listened until about 1,500 years later. And then he made a big, gigantic splash.
The moral of the story is patience: Your Splash Could Be Delayed.
The book is Confucius and the World he Created. http://amzn.to/2olxaMy
