Planning and preparation

Having a plan for your life can make the life of your family easier and can set you in the right trajectory to be able to take care of those you love in the future.

BECOMING AN ADULT

This was a big step for me as I feel like in life I was always given advice from my parents but was not actually provided the guidance I need in life to becoma responsible adult. Words were always exchanged on what I should do in life but I was never actually given a blue print to follow. A blue print from someone who has walked this life already would have helped me avoid many mistakes in life such as choosing the wrong friends, wasting time on relationships that were not beneficial or long term and setting my mindset to be in the right trajectory in life from the beginning. As I matured to become an adult I was shocked about different aspects of life such as failed relationships with friends and family members, financial planning, being organised and having a goal, maturing emotionally, responsibilities that continue to grow as we age and future planning.

CAREER PLANNING & FINANCES
This topics is so imprtant to plan for and is something that is not discussed in depth by people in society. You career will take so many years of your life and be the main provider in your income but is never discussed in depth at school or with your parents. I feel like this is ridiculuos, how can such an important topic about an individuals life be avoided and not discussed in depth. I believe that everyone should be provided career planning as a subject with help from advisors such as parents, industry leaders and other successful individuals who can help a student decide on a path that can set them up for success in life. Rather than that individual making a blind decision that might cause them and lead them to become and achieve nothing in life. Careers are an essential aspect of someone's life as it also is the primary income provider for that household. Imagine not being able to provide for yourself and your family because in year 11 and 12 you had no idea what you were doing and what trajectory you were headeding towards in life.

FAMILY PLANNING & ORGANISATION

Family is such an important topic to many people in life. Family is what can be your support system that helps you overcome challenges in life  and push you to continue through hardship. On the flip side they can also hold you back and cause you problems in life. Family is something we should all want and having a family that is connected, supportive and healthy is essential. Through family you can achieve so much. Even more important is to have a family that is organised. An organised family means that you are able to support each other and can rely on each other if needed. Without a family that is organised and structured a household will not be able to function. An organised family mean that later in life things can transition in a natural and easy process. As the older individuals such as parents age they are able to be taken care of by the younger generation a natural and simple process. You raise your children who in turn take care of you as you grow old and then they do the same in turn. Therefore, it is beneficial for everyone to make sure to take care of their family who in turn will take care of them.

EARNING YOUR LEASURE

Why have leasure if you have not done anything to deserve the leasure. Stories of people who go on long holidays just to get bored reminds me that taking a holiday for no reason is a waste of time. Instead, it is more important to work hard, achieve your goals and then to take a well deserved break. Putting in the effort to achieve your goals and then take time off feels so much better than just taking time off for no reason at all. Earning you leasure is the right mindset to have to achieve your goals in life.
