Not last Fall, but the Fall before, I planted some mums that did not last through the winter. This past Fall, I planted some more and was determined to keep them alive over the winter. They died, I cut them back and continued to water the dead-looking plants occasionally through the winter months. I was so excited to see some green on the plants earlier this month. My efforts, though they sometimes seemed like a waste, paid off.  That's a concept that carries over to so many other things.  The small things matter and they can add up to something bigger.
