I believe in order to get ahead in life you have to set goals and be consistent. This is something that took me a long time to learn. I would expect life to be handed to me because I prayed about it or thought about it, and not putting in any work at all. Even though I’ve heard the saying God laughs when we make plans, half to time I don’t believe this. He wants us to succeed in life as long as we somehow follow the guide he created for us, it’s up to us to decide how we will follow through. So it’s okay to plan out your life.
Planning helps us be consistent and hold us accountable, for example this blog. I went out and bought planner after planner wrote out how I wanted my site to look and when I wanted to post. But I wasn’t putting in the work in order to see the fruits of my labor. I wasn’t posting anything and wondering why I wasn’t seeing any growth and no responses. Then I would be come angry, then stop and start the vicious cycle again. No consistency. This is where I believe God laughs at us, because he gives us the idea and the ways of going through with it and we get stuck for some reason. It’s like we need a push or some sort to get started… to follow through with our plans
Remember in order to succeed you have to pray and be consistent towards your dreams and goals, and then watch how everything will finally fall into place.
PSA: This blog is still a work in progress, but I promise I’m not going anywhere for a long time.
