Success Is Your Destiny If You Make & Work a Plan

“Plan for the future because that’s where you are going to spend the rest of your life.” Mark Twain

Do you have a written plan or a roadmap that spells out where you are headed? Having a clear plan keeps you mindful of how well you are progressing towards your goal. Even in the event of a detour, you will be able to map out an alternative route IF you are living and working from a plan. When you look at others who are successful and happy, they make plans and live life with intention and direction.

Today’s affirmation is designed to encourage you to take the reins, make smart plans for your future and live the life you were designed to live beginning today:

I make smart plans for my future. 

Success Is Your Destiny If You Make & Work a Plan. Here’s how I do it.

I like to live my life according to a plan. It is difficult to end up in a good place by accident. By having plans and goals, I increase the likelihood of having a wonderful life. I want my life to be an example of what is possible.

I choose to avoid living my life by default. I move toward something good, rather than move away from something painful. Just trying to avoid pain means I lack a plan.

I take the necessary time each week to re-evaluate my progress and make adjustments to my plans based on that evaluation. If I keep tweaking my approach, success is mine. Success is my destiny.

At night, I think about everything I did that day to put my plans into action. I ask myself how I can enhance my plan and the actions I am taking each day. I visualize being successful and fall asleep in the knowledge that I am actively bettering my life.

My plans for the future are thoughtful and intelligent. I put a lot of careful consideration into my goals. My goals are perfect for me. My plans are in line with my values and beliefs. I know my life is getting better as I take steps to follow my plans.

Self-Reflection Questions:

1.           What are my three most important goals?

2.            What are my plans for achieving those goals?

3.            How much time do I spend each day toward achieving those goals?

 Today, I focus on my plans for the future. My renewed plans are congruent with my values. I am excited about what lies ahead. I make smart plans for my future.
