• You need a plan to build a house. To build a life, it is even more important to have a plan or goal– Zig Ziglar

• If you don’t design your own life plan (goals), chances are you’ll fall into someone else’s plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much – Jim Rohn

• The trouble with not having a goal is that you can spend your life running up and down the field and never score – Bill Copeland

• The tragedy of life does not lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goals to reach - Benjamin Mays

There are three class of people• Ones that make things

happenGreat Mind

(Initiate/Control)

• One who let it happen Mediocre Mind

(Observe/ No control)

• One who don’t know what happened. (Ignorant/Complain) Narrow Mind

Which one are you going to be? Only you Decide

• If you are not working to where you want to be, you are AUTOMATICALLY working to where you don’t want to be.

• Keep your important values in mind at all times even when you are making Less important decisions.

• Don’t sacrifice what matters most for something that doesn't matter much to you. There are always TRADE OFFS
