2016! 9 days into the New Year and some people already have the year mapped out for them, some others are panicking coz they have no plans for the year and it freaks them out while some like me have no specific plans mapped out but the determination and will to succeed more than we did last year.
Now don't get me wrong, when I say I have no specific plan mapped out, it doesn't mean I'm just living each day as it goes out. Yes I do have plans, I have clients whom I have to make plans for and that automatically falls on me. What i mean is, I don't have plans saying "by July, I must be at a certain level or I must have made 10 million naira, or i must be engaged". I don't make such plans because I am who I am and it doesn't work for me, it might work for many other people. I am not where I am today because I made certain plans, I'm where I am because I worked hard at what I do and people recognized that hard work.
I never thought I would be working for RocNation, shit never even crossed my mind but I'm dedicated to my work, I take it seriously and I work hard at it, and thanks to God who directs my steps, I got recommended for the position. Come to think about it......... I've been recommended to every client I've worked with so far. Excuse me, I'm a bad ass *takes a bow*. Lol. I did however apply to work at Ndani Communications :-)
After smoking cigarettes for 15 years, I finally quit in September 2015. I didn't plan to quit, I just decided one day and I am never going back (I keep saying when I'm 50, I'll smoke a stick, Lol). I personally don't make plans because things happen, situations arise, people change, nothing is constant and all of that can affect plans made and that can mess up a lot of things. What I do is tell myself "I will rise higher than I was in the past year, I will make more money than I made last year, I will be a better person than I was last year" and I work towards that.
Whatever works for you, make sure you stay dedicated to it, work hard towards achieving those goals and if you hit any hurdles, it's fine, pick yourself up and keep moving. Always remember it's okay to be scared, the key is to remain positive while being scared, don't let fear distract you from your goal. Above all, stay prayerful and never lose faith! Stay hopeful and have an awesome 2016!
