THE CHOICE IS ENTIRELY YOURS TO MAKE

THE CHOICE IS ENTIRELY YOURS TO MAKE
 Three Fishes lived in a pond . One was named "Plan ahead' another was named 'Think fast' and the third was named "wait and see". One day they heard a fisherman said that he would be going to cast his net in their pond the next day.
  'Plan ahead' said , "I am swimming down the river tonight", 'Think fast' said "I am sure I will come up with a plan'',' Wait and see' lazily said 'I just cant think of it now'.
    When the Fisherman casted his nest into the pond the next day, "plan ahead' was able to escape from his net but 'think fast' and 'wait and see' were caught by the fisherman.
   "Think fast' quickly thought of a plan and rolled up his belly pretending to be dead. ''Oh, this fish is no good'' said the fisherman and threw him safely back into the water. However 'wait and see ' ended up in the fish market.
 There are two ways to live either by default or design, and the choice is entirely yours . By default means that you let things happen to you and you react. By design means that you predetermine what must happen and you deliberately make it happen. This is called living intentionally.
   Unfortunately many people prefer to live by default going from crises to crises wondering what is happening to them.
 I have heard people say things like, "when we get to the bridge we'll cross it". Amazingly very few people ever cross the bridge as they claimed they would. The reason is simple, without a plan, you leave your life to chance- a very unpredictable way to live. if you want to become successful in your career or any area of your life, you have to learn how to plan your life and live according to that plan. Dont let things happen to you but rather make things happen to your plan.
