African Proverb: Not all flowers produce fruit
Meaning: Even of fruit producing trees, not all the flowers on a tree produce fruits. Of course there many factors that could account for that but chief among them is 1. the lack of cultivation. To cultivate is to care for, in order to grow to produce desired results. Cultivation requires a lot hard work and patience. You see, it's one thing to have potential and another thing to develop that potential. You may have the potential to be a great person, but if you don't work towards it, that will never materialize. The second main reason why fruit-bearing trees don't produce fruits, as explained by Agriculturists, is that they spend most of their energy producing wood instead of flower buds. The same is true of us human. The reason many of us are not fruitful, even though we have the potential is that we waste our energy on chaff (unproductive activities) What do spend most of your time doing? Don't waste your potential.
