MY PLAN FOR THE FUTURE...


It is often said that, 'failing to plan is planning to fail.' This statement suggests that without planning, one is bound to fail. this makes it incumbent on us , the up and coming youth to put on our 'thinking caps' and plan for the future.

Numerous discoveries and life-changing decisions have been made since Adam and we do not have to go about re-inventing the wheel. What we need to do is to add to what we have in place and introduce novelties, whether individually or collectively.

Your plan for the future should be a life-changing phenomenon, a unique agenda. An agenda which is not to be of individual benefit but of societal well-being. You may decide to replicate something which already exists but it will be better if it has a 'personal touch', if it has some other flavour of its own, so that it appears new.

A plan for the future should be a challenge to all; it should be difficult to beat. You need to elevate the bar, above what already exists. You need to raise the standards, in your academics, sports or any worthy endeavour you undertake.

Your plan for the future should have the ability to cause change. It should have a positive effect on society so that it is acknowledged by all and sundry. It should be appreciated in various ways including being awarded honours. A good plan for the future challenges the status quo and is also dynamic.

You need to be passionate about your plan, giving it your all, knowing that great struggles bring great victories. you should be time conscious and be a respecter of time. Patience counts but to have a sense of urgency also puts you on your toes and prevents procrastination.

My plan for the future has begun, you can start yours now, knowing that there is a place for everybody's contribution in the world. Make it unique, make it the best, make it now!
