Plans


Every year, there will be a time where we will be feeling a bit motivated to plan out what we are to expect throughout the year, what are we planning to do etc. Usually this happens at the very beginning of the year...or maybe at the end of the year where we will be planning ahead for the next year.


But.....is planning good for us? I remember there's a quote by the Joker from "The Dark Knight" movie..... "Do I really look like a guy with a plan? You know what I am? I'm a dog chasing cars. I wouldn't know what to do with one if I caught it. You know, I just... do things. The mob has plans, the cops have plans, Gordon's got plans. You know, they're schemers. Schemers trying to control their little worlds. I'm not a schemer. I try to show the schemers how pathetic their attempts to control things really are." Then we come to a cross road.....do we need to plan or just follow what the Joker says......dog chasing cars?


We should keep in mind.....with plans there are possibilities of failing. But that should not defer us from planning. We should continue to plan and learn from our past mistakes.....and not follow what the Joker has said.


Planning motivates us. It also give us a sense of direction, well, at least it is true to me. I feel that sometimes I forgot where I'm heading when I strayed off my plans. I'm not sure how about others.


Maybe most of my plans worked out right. But, I still remember there was once things do not go according my way. And I was really like what the Joker has said....that how pathetic I attempt to control things, when the fact is most of the things might not go according my way. It's way beyond my control. Well, I learned from it though, and now I still continue to plan and will continue to plan.


So, what are your plans for the year?
