Plan and Prepare Diligently Before You Begin


In order to get the results you want (in every area of your life), you must desire to, plan to, and make the necessary effort to get it. You have to plan every step upward to your own high mountaintop, and it is worth mentioning that a good plan is like a road map: it shows the final destination and usually the best way to get there.

Here are 25 key reasons why you should plan and prepare diligently before you begin taking steps toward your goals (in every area of your life):

1.   That's what the scripture says: "Write the vision; make it plain upon tablets so he may run who reads it…" — Habakkuk 2:2 (RSV)

2.  Courage and confidence to do what you've planned (in every area of your life) comes through practice.

3.   It helps you to prepare yourself psychologically in terms of resolve and discipline. And knowing the price to pay (for example, learning new skills) helps you to accomplish this.

4.  The price for achieving poor results is much greater than that for achieving extraordinary results.

5.  Just by simply starting to do what you have planned will create an ability to do which will increase your confidence and courage.

6.    It motivates you to take action and do whatever it takes to achieve what you want.

7.  A written plan of action creates a psychological commitment to your goals (in every area of your life). Without it there will always be distractions to tempt you off the path that leads to the attainment of your goals.

8.  A written plan of action helps you to prioritize your work and set deadlines.

9.  A written plan serves as a measure of the progress you make toward the attainment of each goal you set (in every area of your life).

10. A written plan of action provides a guide to help you stay on course.

11. Reviewing your goals and plans can only be done if they are written down.

12. When you spend time thinking about what you want to accomplish (in every area of your life) and write them down on paper, it stimulates your imagination and this in turn increases your creativity to assist you in a successful completion of it.

13. "Success depends upon previous preparation, and without such preparation there is sure to be failure." –Confucius

14. Diligent planning and preparation gets you ready for your opportunity when it comes.

15. To be prepared is half the victory.

16. Getting ready is the secret to success.

17. Talent alone won't make you a success. Neither will being in the right place at the right time, unless you are ready.

18. Study and preparation have to be done before opportunities can be capitalized on.

19. Chance favors the mind that is prepared. You will not see opportunities that stare you in the face, until the time arrives when the mind is ripened even though they are there for you all the time.

20. To quote Benjamin Franklin: "By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail."

21. It helps you to achieve what you are potentially capable of. To develop our potential properly, we must have a purpose and a plan, and we must be doing something to fulfill it.

22. You have to plan and prepare carefully so that when you recognize the opportunity that is consistent with what you want (in every area of your life) you are ready for it. With no written goals and plans how will you recognize it?

23. Today's preparation determines tomorrow's achievement.

24. It is not the will to win, but the will to prepare to win that makes the difference.

25. Diligent planning and preparation to achieve your goals (in every area of your life) is the price you have to pay to win.

To Your Success,

Reach Your Goals

Image
Each New Year brings the chance to start over. For some people they set goals and make New Year resolutions, but less than half of people who make New Year Resolutions actually  fulfill  them. If their goals are really important things they want to do, have, achieve or become, why is it that when they decide what they want (in every area of their lives) they don't get it?  Everyone can come up with a list of reasons why they didn't achieve what they wanted, but we have to learn to think of solutions to our problems, not finding someone or something to blame. This year, stop the cycle of resolving to make change, but then not following through. In this post, I'll give you some tips to help you avoid making the mistakes that prevent many people from achieving their goals (and keep their resolutions) in every area of life. 1. Your Goals MUST Be Yours Decide what you want to accomplish (in every area of life). Don't be concerned about what other...

Develop a Strong Desire to Succeed

God has given all living creatures the instinct to survive but He has given us another quality which sets us apart. Mankind has an in-built desire to succeed, something which is as natural to us as breathing. Humans are by nature goal-striving and we are not happy unless we are functioning in this way. There is only one success; to be able to spend your life in your own way. You already possess an unlimited force within you to do this, what is required is the programming of the ultimate computer— your mind. You are the programmer and with the right techniques you can instruct it to select what you really want. We become what we think. Each of us becomes exactly what we program our minds to be. A prosperous person programs prosperous thinking into his or her mind and a miserable person instructs his or her mind to make them unhappy, mediocre, boring, and "average". Your mind is like soil in a garden— it does not care what you plant— it will always nourish it.  Tak...
