Lately i had the privilege of hearing from a lady who has been in this business for almost 20 years! Wah it was really long time and i thought that the wisdom that this lady was going to share would definitely going to add tremendously value to me. True enough, i have gained a few insightful informations that i am going to share with you guys.

First of all, she shared with us about the importance of having a plan. It is not a normal plan of what you are doing daily or weekly but it is a plan that involved 10 years of your career! Not many people this days are able to do it because they are not serious about their career as they are taking the approach of what we called ‘see see look look’ attitude. She told us the moment when she started out this career as a financial planner, she has planned out what she is going to achieve step by step in years to come. And guess what? She achieved everything in just a short 5 years!!!

Listening to such success stories have again reinforced the idea of law of attraction and importance of planning. Law of attraction works in a way that we will dream and visualise what we want the things in life to be and slowly our behaviour and actions will be more in tuned to this area. At the end of the day you will achieve the things that you been desiring. Planning of what you want in life is the first step of getting what you want. We should really sit down and think of what we want to achieve in life.

Merry Riana (my pretty boss) had shared with us her own personal dream book that she had it years ago when she was still a student. Inside her dream book consists of all her dreams including being a young millionaire, singer, no.1 trainer and of course a wonderful family of her own. So did she managed to achieve everything? OF COURSE not all tho =) But she can proudly said that she managed to get almost 90% of the things she desired since last time.

So with another success stories with regarding about a long term career/life plan, what are we waiting for? Right now, please go and sit down to think seriously about what do you want in your life for the next 10 years and how are you going to achieve it? Pen it down inside a book so that you can see it next time. You can make it nicer by placing many pictures (what you want to have) to create a more ‘real’ effect.

Secondly this lady also shared with us about passion. As usual for most people to be successful in any other career, he/she has to love the job. To love the job, the person needs to be passionate about it. To be passionate about it, you got to do it with interest. Though it may sounds easy and i believe many of us have heard it many times before but yet seldom of us managed to do it. Why???

In my opinion, i feel that it is because people did not put enough reasons to put behind the reason for doing something. Although it is just reasons but do u guys know that by just having strong reasons can just simply makes or breaks a person. Success is just sometimes depending on the reasons behind the action. Eg: If you want to be lose weight so you got to ask what are the reasons behind? Is it because it feels good to have it or because it is a must for you to have it if not your loved one will leave or look down on you?  If your reason is the latter, i am very sure you will lose weight real fast! I also believe that interest can be cultivated. So long you put enough time and effort in trying to learn something and most importanly associated feeling into the thing, interest will get stronger day by day.

Well i believe right now after reading it, you may feel motivated. If you are, take actions now! Go do your planning and talk to people that has been there done there. Get their advice and MODEL after them! But if you are still not motivated or convinced about the importance of having a plan in your career/life, go look for some reasons why you think it is not importance and ask whether is it really true that we should live life just as things come or we need to really plan ahead?
