PLANS FOR SUCCESS.

Source

In the life of every successful man, there is a plan. In every step you would like to take towards success, you should write out a clear concise plan by which you intend to achieve your specific goal in life. State the precise maximum amount of time you will allow for the fulfilment of your major goal. Break the achievement down into units of effort, minor goals and plans, which are the realm of possibility and probability. Put time limits on each plan leading to your major goal. It is also important that you describe precisely what you intend to give in return for the realization of your purpose.

There is no such reality as something for nothing. You must feel that you are entitled to the money you want or the influence you will wield, or whatever your aim is. Everything has a price tag on it. You must be willing to read the price tag a pay it in full before you get the the object of your desire. This price must usually be paid in advance. It is possible to pay it on the instalment plan in easy steps, but the total price must be paid before the object of your desire becomes your own.

Make your plans flexible so as to permit changes. The plan for achieving that purpose may change many times. Infinite intelligence may reveal to you a plan which is far superior, for your purpose, to the one that you've dreamed up. Stand ready at all times to receive, accept gladly and gracefully, and adopt willingly any better plans which occur to your mind out of the blue. Always be on the alert for such bunches.
