Incipient

Incipient

<in-sip-pee-ent>

beginning; initial; emerging

The start of something. The birth point and absolute beginning.

The incipient seedling would one day grow into a great tree.

Memory trick:
incipient reminds of incite
incite means to start something
He incited the team to action.

Used at work:
My incipient book will become a great success. It will make millions.
