PLAN YOUR WAY INTO SUCCESS

                    

Careful planning puts you ahead in the long run; hurry and scurry puts you further behind. Proverbs 21:5 - MSG

It is the dawn of a new day Friends,

How has 2018 been for you? For me, it has been awesome with so many life changing testimonies. I give God all the glory.

It is Christmas Season again and families, friends, and colleagues will be gathering but it is also a good time to plan as you would have a few days holiday.

It is a well-planned life that lasts. I have discovered that you can plan your way out of failure, poverty or a family problem.

Every enterprise, whether it is the life of an individual or family or business is built by wise planning. Every building must have a building plan before construction commences. Dr. Robert H. Schuller said that “most people fail not because they plan to fail but because they fail to plan.” Planning connects your vision to your current position.

Vision is the picture of the end-point. But you have got to be able to chart a course from where you are, to where you are going. That is the essence of planning. It is one thing for you to see the picture of the end-point, but you have just got to be able to find out how to get there, else you will get lost in-between. And a whole lot of people are lost in-between. For you, the end-point or picture may be a house, a five-bedroom duplex, a wonderful company, and a successful business/conglomerate. That is fantastic! But without a plan, if you start construction you will end up in confusion and frustration. That is inevitable! That’s why the scripture uses this illustration too, it says “Is there anyone here who, planning to build a new house, doesn’t first sit down and figure the cost so you’ll know if you can complete it? If you only get the foundation laid and then run out of money, you’re going to look pretty foolish. Everyone passing by will poke fun at you: ‘He started something he couldn’t finish.” Luke 14:28-30

Remember, it is in a plan that you succeed or fail.

Someone said, if you fail to plan, then you plan to fail.  If your plan does not work out initially, do not be discouraged. Success will not come without you taking a risk. And if you have tried and failed, congratulations; you are closer to success than those who have not tried at all.

Keep on succeeding!

  

P.S. What is your plan for this Christmas and the New Year that is approaching? How much money are you going to make. How much are you going to spend? How many books are you going to read? How many people are you going to visit? Have a plan. Don’t go spending all your savings in the name of celebrating Christmas, and blame January for being a hard and dry month. Have a plan!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

SEE YOU AT THE TOP!
