Plans.

The year has come to an end, and very soon we should be entering another year. This period is usually the period people ruminate over their achievement or failure. This habit of reflecting over the activities of the year, no matter what the outcome is, one will know he has been alive.

A person should set his goals as early as he can and devote all his energy and talent to getting there. With enough effort, he may achieve it. Or he may find something that is even more rewarding.

Make your plans as early as possible. The plans could cover a short time goal and long time goal. By making these plan, its serves as a guide toward what you want to achieve for the year. These plans help you keep focus to the target without loosing track of the goal.

But first, the plans have to be in written. It is only when it is in written that is considered a plan. Reason being that, the brain may lost track of the original plan in the course of time. The brain is not a reliable storage archive. That's why we need an external storage facilities like paper and pen to pen it down or a computer storage facility.

The plan have to come as early as January, because when you stretch the time before making these plans, the time will create its own needs that you need to attend to, before you know it, all your actions will be reactive of what the need at hand throw at you. That's why we need to be proactive, in making our plans. It help us set our priorities right. And help us devote our energy and talent to getting there.

The beauty of making plans is not only in achieving them but no matter the outcome, the person will know he has been alive, when reflecting over his activities of the year at the end of the year and surely will have a reason to appreciate God and take delight in his effort that he has put in the course of the year. Happy new year in advance.
