"Rome wasn't built in one day. It
took years and years to build. Even
Washington, D.C. was mapped out!
There's no preacher in the history of
mankind ever born on a wooden
cross, with a mitre hat on his head."
-The Glazzinator, yours truly
Once you've decided to make the
commitment to reach your goal(s)
that you've visualized in your head
that originated from filling a need,
then it's time to formulate a plan on
how to get there. It's not enough to
say you'll do something or commit to
something, you have to follow
through...and that involves planning.
The best sports teams in history all
had a plan - a roadmap. You see, if
you just go through life willy nilly
and not caring about stuff, and not
planning things, and just do
everything spur-of-the-moment
spontaneously all the time, you won't
last very long. Even farmers have a
plan on how they'll sow their crops:
how many rows they'll make, how
much rain they need, how many
weeks to maturity, how much weeds
they have to pull, etc. The most
successful people in this world plan
things out. of course, to a
spontaneous person, it might seem
boring, but it's great and necessary.
Think about it, what if instead of
having the super bowl after the
playoffs in february, the NFL
announced they'll play the game
randomly at any point in the year,
even during spring training when no
teams are playing in the NFL????
That's bananas my friend!
So you see we, need order, a plan of
action if you will. We need a life plan!
What's your life plan? A good one is
planning to be an engineer. So a good
plan would be to enroll in an
engineering school or learn
independently at the library on your
own. That would be step 1. Step 2
would be to finish school or training
in the engineering realm, and then
practice or work under someone else
or on your own - experimenting and
such. Step 3 would be to actually
work at a job as an engineer,
and.....voila you are meeting your
needs and accomplishing your goal.
So remember, work towards a plan
for achieving your goal and then do it
buddy!
