What is Your Plan for 2016?
Happy New Year! 😀
.
.
Are you excited for 2016?
.
.
Maybe you’re so excited to seize the year right away and start working. That’s good. But I believe planning is very crucial.
.
.
One of the lessons I learned the painful way in 2014 was that I should have spent more time to plan. Don’t get me wrong. I did plan at the start of 2014 and during the year. But the time I spent to plan was not sufficient.
.
.
I love what I do but there were times in 2014 when I was so stressed out because deadlines were approaching so fast and my deliverables were over my head. I realised I lacked one thing: sufficient planning.
.
.
.
On January 2015, I dedicated five whole days to plan for my 2015. Yes, you read that right. Five days. From January 5-9, 2015, I stayed at Seda Hotel, Navali, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, to think and plan.
.
.
During the planning session, I wrote down the books I wanted to write and launch, the talks I wanted to deliver, the places I’d like to go to, the new skills I wanted to develop, the dates when I’d go home to our province for vacations, the people I’d like to meet, etc.
.
Take Time to Plan
.
.
Take time to plan. You don’t have to spend five days to plan. You could allot one Saturday, or one afternoon, to plan your goals for 2016. Write down your goals. Read them everyday.
.
.
In Luke 14:24, Jesus said, “Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it?”
.
.
Makes sense, isn’t it?
.
.
Go ahead. Write down your plans for 2016.
.
.
I wish you success and happiness!
