There is no one with positive and persistent plan who eventually fails to get what he/she wants. A man with a fixed plan is successful just like a sea captain in mid-Atlantic, this will only mean that he is always half-way to the port even before acting on it. Starting something or a project with no plan ahead sees a high possibility to a complete fail. There are many people who start small and even big businesses with no plan, having less or lots of capital to their side and holding the generation of the projects very fast. With no time all their invested thoughts turn to regrets and discouragement due to lack of planning.Picture this, one would start a small grocery store and start it very low with no permanent business residence but walking with a firm plan along. The study of the market in the area would be done to identify products in demand and the competition weight in the target area. He may start selling his products to road users and passersby then would advance to owning a mobile shop and then to a huge grocery store outlet. He will not stop there as the plan will see through generation of other branches to other areas, this will as well involve employment to many workers and that man will turn to be the manager of his wide business. The plan may consume close to or even more than ten years to fully mature. Flipping the picture to the other side, another man would start a big supermarket, use a huge amount of capital, employ many people but to his side running no plan. The supermarket would be located in between other supermarkets and due to lack of plan the goods in the newly set supermarket would slightly be more expensive that in the other competing supermarkets or even the management may be so poor that the workers develop artifice.Comparing the two facets, the huge single supermarket will after say ten years approximately generate less income than the widely spread grocery store by then. At first the generation of income for the two would be out of comparison but by average ratio after some time the business that started with less capital but with a firm plan will largely win over the other that started with high capital and potential but with no decisive plan. It must follow that planning is the key to our attainments.
