Project You
You need a Road Map
If you want to get from point A to point B you need to have some plan for making the trip, and if you are uncertain of how to get there, you will be well served to get a map that will help you find your way.
Be honest about where you are, the consequences you have to deal with and take the time to create a vision of how you want the story of your life to go from this point forward.
Once you have done that, what you need next is a plan to get you to the destination that you wrote in your new life story.
Patience, in the world we live in, is in short supply. We want everything right now and sometimes we are able to get things pretty quickly. Life however, is not an order of fries or an app on your phone.
If you have already given some thought to the consequences you have to deal with and how the story of the rest of your life is going to go, be aware that a short term plan or a quick fix plan, will lead to you having to get your act together again somewhere down the road. This means more lost time and more consequences to deal with.
You have to be honest with yourself and continually examine your plan to make sure it still has you on the path to your destination.
If you spent enough time thinking about your story you may want to talk to other people who have made the trip before you. Do some research on what steps you need to include in your plan to get from one step to the next.
You know where you are and you now have a vision for where you want to go, but there are steps in between that you need to define and include in your plan if you are going to be successful in getting to your destination.
