Plan to succeed

Success comes from taking one step after another, with purpose, focus, discipline and persistence. To make your efforts their most effective, put together a plan.

To get where you choose to go, you must know clearly where that is. The more precisely you can envision and anticipate the steps along the way, the more successful you’ll be.

There are many factors working against you when taking each step along the path to success. One powerful way to facilitate taking the next step is to know what precisely it is.

When you have a good, solid plan, the distractions are not as distracting. When you are following your plan, you can more quickly recover from the setbacks.

Your plan keeps you focused and connected with your purpose. Having a plan enables you to build powerful, positive momentum in your efforts.

Anything that’s worth doing is also worth the time and effort spent to establish a workable plan. Plan to succeed, and you will.
