You can't fatten the pig on market day.

Summary

This quote is often used to emphasize the importance of long-term planning and investing rather than seeking immediate results. It suggests that if you want a pig to be fat and healthy on the day you sell it at the market, you must take care of it and feed it well over a period of time. Similarly, in life and business, success cannot be achieved overnight, but rather through consistent effort, patience, and strategic decision-making that promotes long-term growth and prosperity.
