Plans

"Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire and begin at once, whether you ready or not, to put this plan into action."
Napoleon Hill

It is one thing to decide exactly what you really want to accomplish in your life, or even in this year. Setting good goals requires a lot of self-knowledge and soul-searching. Most people don't even get that far. They have desires but they are vague wishes that will happen "someday". They are too busy coping with all the little things that are going on right now to think about what they really want for the future. They assume the future will be much like the present.

Perhaps you know what you want to happen in the future but you don't see any way to make it happen. This is when you must trust your intuition and be willing to step out of your comfort zone. It is essential to create an action plan. You need to have some idea of how you will get started moving towards your goal.

Once you find a way to get started, you will get better ideas about how to continue. Getting started is the most important thing. Don't wait until you are ready, because we are never really ready to do something unless we can see perfectly how everything will work out. This isn't going to happen when you have a big goal. Just get started. Always keep your eye on the goal and the most efficient road to get there will come into focus as you start travelling on it. Create a plan and begin at once. Success will happen before you know it.
