Create your Life’s Road Map

If you have ever dreamt of greatness, you have to be odd in other to be the No.1

I was getting ready for work when my phone rang and the person at the other end requested that I accompany him somewhere. So, I told him it's not possible.

I had planned my day, so joining him will mean I have to forgo my own activities.

If you are waiting for advice on how to live your life from your friends and families, you may end up with another person's life plan.

It's time for you to sit down and start organizing your life to align with what you want it to be and not to wake up to some calls and off you go.

Your life is yours, anything you become afterwards is your sole responsibility. You can't live on someone's plans and expect a paradise from the blue.

It's time you create your own road map and stop asking people for directions to places they've never been themselves.

Waking up just to follow someone somewhere is like asking a blind person to take over the driver's seat of your vehicle.

We make these mistakes by relying only on people's guidance and we end up being misguided.

So when you retire to your home after the day's work and tuck yourself into bed tonight, I want you to reflect on how your entire day went.

What did you achieve and what caused you to have a setback?
How did you intend to address them in the event that things didn't go as expected?

You can't undo them but you have another brand new day to change your entire approach.

Presently with what you've done, I want you to have your plans in place for each day with a to-do list. Start with the most important task down to the simplest task.

Taking inventory of our own lives will help us restructure and track our progress in line with purpose.

Repeating this principle will work to bring about predictable improvement and increase your overall level of productivity.

Shalom!
