Even with all the planning you do, you’ll miss something, and that’s when it gets exciting-you learn something new! The only real mistake in life is the one from which we learn nothing. And, the only way to keep track of what works and what doesn’t is to have a plan. When you’re following your own course in life, it’s like a final exam every day, except you don’t have a teacher telling you whether or not you made a mistake. But, your homework, and the pop quizzes, are the places to make mistakes-if you go back and try to understand why you missed those questions on all those quizzes. You don’t get ahead by making mistakes on exams. They teach you linear, straightforward thinking: To get to C from A, you first go to B. Don’t aim for failure, but when you do fail, learn from it. Some say, “Failure to plan is planning for failure.” I say, “Embrace failure as a way to learn”-failure is what makes you smarter it provides the answers and enables you to become better. The better your plan, the better you can prepare the better you prepare, the better your chances of success. You plan in order to prepare yourself for the unexpected. Luck, or fortune, favors the bold, brave, strong and prepared. As I’ve said before, being unstoppable is also a choice! And, luck favors the prepared.ĭown through the ages, from the ancient Greek philosophers to the French microbiologist Louis Pasteur and other notable sources, the proverb in the title above has formed the basis of slogans by people in the military and even appeared in family coats of arms. Sometimes, we don’t get what we want from those choices, but they do provide us with opportunities to choose again. One of the steps to becoming unstoppable is to plan-to set the direction of where you want to go and make choices along the way that you think will get you there. And get your mind working for you, not against you.
